Rest now

 From Ladies Pass It On

May you rest now, in peace,

your journey here is over.

And you toiled so very hard,

you deserve that precious gift.

May you sleep now, so sweetly,

the slumber of the loved.

Your life will be remembered,

you need worry not for that.

May you pass now, with permission,

you tried so hard to hold,

but it's not your weight to care,

for those who stay behind.

May you rest now, at last,

your time is right for crossing.

You gave your all to life

and for that you will live on.

May you sleep now, in peace,

till eternity awakes you.

May the love we still have for you,

be the pillow for your head.
