Evening Prayer – 27 November 2017

The sun has set and the Vesper Lights flicker and glow

A long and emotional day as we prepare

Mom’s earthly remains have been lovingly prepared

Dad’s heart continues to break

Sixty-five years is a long time to be together

What a life, what a love, what a legacy

George the cat sat on my lap tonight

He loved Mom and always spent time with her

As the old hymn says

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,

All things wise and wonderful,

The Lord God made them all.

As we prepare for sleep this night

Lord, embrace us in your loving arms

And in your mercy, hear this prayer

Dona Nobis Pacem

Grant Us Peace

A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre…
