Fleetingly known
( to the tune of “ Morning has broken”.)
Fleetingly known, yet ever remembered
These are our children, now and always;
These whom we see not, we will forget not,
Morning and evening, all of our days.
Lives that touched our lives, tenderly, briefly
Now in the one light living always
Named in our hearts now, safe from all harm now
We will remember all of our days.
As we recall them, silently name them,
Open our hearts Lord, now and always
Grant to us grieving love for the living,
Strength for each other all of our days.
Safe in your peace Lord hold these our children;
Grace, light and laughter grant them each day
Cherish and hold them till we may name them
When to your glory we find a way.
