Lyrics
Acceptance
If I could make her into the trees she loved I would,
To be part of the grain of all such good things.
If I could make her a part of the wind and the air I would,
To remember her always as the breathe of life
I am with her now, my sister my friend
I carry her now, my sister my friend
I am forlorn now, for her foregone time,
I cry now, I whisper good-bye.
If I could send her to the sea and waves I would,
To form the tides and be the rhythm of the world.
If I could make her a part of all our thoughts I would,
So we can always have wonder in our minds
Walk with her now, loved sister loved friend
Help carry her now, loved sister loved friend
We are forlorn now, for her foregone time,
we cry now, we whisper good-bye.
The place, here it is,
It will stand for all time.
The land the trees the grass,
Please let nature be her shrine.
Our loss it is deep,
Please let solace reach our minds.
We have but simple words,
Broken hearts,
And this humble ceremony.
(Break, lowering)
This place is for you,
May you rest for all time.
The land the trees the grass,
Please let Nature be your shrine,
Our loss it is deep
Soon will solace reach our minds
We have simple words,
Broken hearts
And this humble ceremony
Make her into the trees she loved we would,
To be part of the grain of all such good things.
Make her a part of the wind and the air we would,
To remember her always as the breathe of life
If I could send her into the sea and the waves I would,
To forms the tides and be the rhythm of the world
We are with her now, loved sister loved friend
We farewell her now, loved sister loved friend
We are with her now, loved sister loved friend
We farewell her now, loved sister loved friend
We are forlorn now, for her foregone time
We remember her
We remember her
Amen
