An original hymn about saying goodbye at the death of a loved one. Music by Kevin G. Pace. Text by Mary Ann Snowball below:
We would never say goodbye When our loved
ones die.
We would always want them close, Or
right by our side.
But we know the Fathers plan-Theres a
time to weep.
As we trust His way we hear Holy words
to keep:
Chorus:
Let not your hearts be troubled, Nor let
them be afraid.
My peace I give you freely-- Peace that
will never fade.
In his comfort well be wrapped; He
wipes tears away,
And his many mansions wait . . . In his care
well stay.
All must die to live with God; Well pause
patiently,
And because the Savior bled, We hear
quietly:
Chorus:
Let not your hearts be troubled, Nor let
them be afraid.
My peace I give you freely-Peace that
will never fade.
Then on resurrection morn, Singing songs
of praise,
Well receive the gift bestowed Under
heavens rays.
We will be united there With our loved
ones dear.
In our mem ry well recall Words we
used to hear:
Chorus:
Let not your hearts be troubled, Nor let
them be afraid.
My peace I give you freely-- Peace that
will never fade.
We will never say goodbye; Lasting life
is real.
God has healed our broken hearts And He
loves us still.
We will never say goodbye; Hes the
perfect way.
Joy is ours, eternally, For we heard him
say:
Chorus:
Let not your hearts be troubled, Nor let
them be afraid.
My peace I give you freely-- Peace that
will never fade.
