Rest in peace

作曲 : Peter Skellern

For all who need comfort for all those who mourn

all those whom we cherished will be reborn

All those whom we love but see no more

they are not perished,but gone before

and lie in the tender arms of He who died for us all to set us free

from hatred and anger and cruel tyranny

may they rest in peace -and rise in glory

All suffering and sorrow will be no more

they'll vanish like shadows at heaven's door

All anguish and grieving will one day be healed

when all of God's purpose will be revealed.

Though now for a season lost from sight

the innocent slain in the blindness of 'right'

are now in the warmth of God's glorious light

where they rest in peace -and rise in glory

Lord give me wisdom to comprehend why I survive and not my friend

and teach me compassion so I may live,all my enemies to forgive

For all who need comfort for all those who mourn

all those whom we cherished will be reborn

All those whom we love but see no more

they are not perished but gone before

And Lord keep them safe in Your embrace

and fill their souls with Your good grace

for now they see you face to face

where they rest in peace -and rise in glory
