May Our Fallen Rest In Peace

May our fallen rest in peace,

When the sun sets on their lives

And it’s time to close the casket.

May our fallen rest in peace,

When they have no more breath to give

And no more life to continue living.

May our fallen rest in peace,

When their souls found Heaven too soon

And they glimpsed their Maker before their time.

May our fallen rest in peace,

When they gave all they got 'til the end

And left this earth, strong and brave.

May our fallen rest in peace,

When we remember them in a candle-lit ceremony

Honoring their life and all that they loved.

May our fallen rest in peace,

When we leave that rose on their tombstone

And whisper our last goodbyes.
