Remembering Pop Moynan in 1997
OUR HEARTS ARE SAD
Our hearts are sad to know we shall not meet again on earth.
The years of sharing joy and pain are gone,
For he, our friend, his rest has won,
He goes before to Christ our Lord, rejoicing in new birth.
Although we weep and mourn his passing, yet we know
That earthly limitations now are past,
And we will join him when, at last,
We reach the Kingdom promised long ago.
Recall the happy times you shared, with love,
Rejoice in knowledge of God’s grace,
And know that He will keep him safe,
Until in God’s own time we all to heaven move.
