One So Dear To Me… :One So Dear To Me… From Life To Death
Slide 2:My close friend…
A brilliant scientist with a promising future…
He was only 35 when he was killed in an automobile accident…
With what words can one console the family?
How to explain such “young” deaths?
One So Dear To Me… :He was our son, the apple of our eyes
So affectionate, obedient and dutiful
In our old age, thought he’d take care of us
Dear Lord, how can You do this?
Why did You take him away from us? One So Dear To Me…
Slide 4:He was my friend, philosopher and guide
Someone with whom I could enjoy and share
When needed thought he’d always be there
Tell me Lord, Why did You do this?
Took him away, one so special to me?
Slide 5:He was my partner and my companion for life
So loving, caring, kind and patient
Thought he will be with me forever
Dear Lord, How could You be so cruel?
Took him away, one who was bound to me?
Slide 6:He was my dear father and my beacon
So doting, playful, used to make me laugh
Thought he’d be around to see me bloom
Tell me Lord, why did You do this?
Snatched him away, one so needed by me?
Slide 7:I hear you all, please try to understand
Each one of you is a part of Me
I send each one of you down to earth
With an opportunity and a challenge
To become a perfect soul to please Me
Slide 8:As a grain in a shell becomes a pearl
As coal, under pressure, turns into a diamond
Each soul, is expected, during life’s journey
To be polished into a clear shining mirror
Reflecting the Glory of Me.
Slide 9:He was eager and conscious of his purpose
I saw My Self in him, sooner than expected
Hear Me! Mother, Daughter, Partner and Friend
Please do forgive Me; I had to take him back
Because he became equally dear to Me!
