‘You Raise Me Up’ ~ Josh Groban

Hymn
Morning has broken like the first morning,
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird.
Praise for the singing! Praise for the morning!
Praise for them, springing fresh from the Word!
Sweet the rain's new fall sunlit from heaven,
Like the first dewfall on the first grass.
Praise for the sweetness, of the wet garden,
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass.
Mine is the sunlight! Mine is the morning,
Born of the one light Eden saw play!
Praise with elation, praise every morning,
God's re-creation of the new day!

Poem ~ read by family
When you see a robin in the tree,
Did you know that it was me?
I am never far away,
As I watch over you every day,
I hope my presence brings you peace,
To carry on and smile with ease,
I will always be in your heart
Even though we are apart,
Next time you see a robin in a tree,
Stay a while and think of me.
