Subject: RE: Music and Poems for a Funeral
We are very sorry for your loss. We were asked to sing at a funeral of a dear friend just after Christmas. I sang the Irish Blessing :- May the road rise up to meet you May the wind be always at your back May the sun shine warm upon your face May the rain fall soft upon your fields

Until we meet again, until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand Until we meet again, until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand May the stones stand firm to shelter you May your fire burn warm within your hearth May your friends bring comfort to your home May your music ring within it's walls

Until we meet again, until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand Until we meet again, until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand

Bob sang The Farewell Shanty (It's time to go now)
