God’s Handyman
The world was in need of repair
to God sent down his handyman
to show some love and care
He gave us a man
who was strong and tough
and equipped with all the tools
of wisdom, compassion, and love
God sent him here not to just fix things
but to build them, too
Friendships, Homes…there was nothing
he couldn’t do!
God blessed us with his handyman
and miss him much we will
but it comforts us in knowing
He can help in heaven still.
Always Remember
Let us forget this grief
but remember the joy of your life
how you always gracefully
handled all the strife
You were strong
and compassionate
And kind and
full of love
And we will always remember that
when we feel you
smiling from above
We may miss you
for eternity
but the lifetime that you’ve had
has taught us so much, Dad
Forever you will be
in our hearts
And nothing will keep
your love for us apart.
Daddy’s Home
Home is where the heart is
and the heart is always home
And while you’re not with us
we feel your spirit roam
It’s presence is in everything
from the rising sun
and in the birds who sing
reminding us that love
surrounds us everywhere
So while you’re not here
on earth, we know you have found the place
where everything is filled with love and grace.
And in heaven, they rejoice
Daddy’s Home, Daddy’s Home!
