wordless sorrow,
pain of parting,
dry or weeping,
on our lips and in our bodies,
loving God, to you we offer.
2 Times remembered,
joy discovered,
love and friendship,
voice and gesture,
precious, lovely,
one and only,
giving God,
we tell and treasure.
3 Word of promise,
lift our singing,
blending grieving
with believing.
In your hands is all completed,
lasting God,
our hope and measure.
4 Christ among us,
Spirit-breathing,
safe companion,
in your keeping,
death is birth to resurrection,
living God, our joy forever. Used With Tune: MOUNT AUBURN
Grief of Ending, Wordless Sorrow
