Requiem: In Remembrance—text traditional

Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glint on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle morning rain.

And when you wake in the morning’s hush,

I am the sweet, uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry,

I am not there, I did not die.

PROGRAM (con’t) Finding the Words (2020) Michael Markowski

Soon I will be done with the troubles of the world, Gone home to live with God.

I want to see my Jesus.

(Gone home to live with God.)
