O Loving God - Lyrics

Verse 1
O loving God we send our daughter(son) home to you
home to a place of everlasting love
to join there with the angel choirs and blessed saints
and to behold your glorious holy face


Chorus
Receive her(his) soul and let eternal light shine
eternal light forever on her(his) soul
so she(he) may be forever in your dwelling place
and be at rest in peace until we meet her(him) there


Verse 2
O loving God have mercy and forgiveness
Upon your servant's now departed soul
And may your grace and love enfold her(him) evermore
So she(he) may dwell in paradise at last


Chorus
Receive her(his) soul and let eternal light shine
eternal light forever on her(his) soul
so she(he) may be forever in your dwelling place
and be at rest in peace until we meet her(him) there
