Goodbye
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
God be with you
God be with you
Adios
Go with God
All is well
Safely rest
Goodbye
My dearly departed heart
Lies in an unmarked grave
You never called to say goodbye
No stone no epitaph
Here love once did exist
I know it will be missed
Goodbye
Brush the cheek
Wipe the eye
Goodbye
We're gathered here today
Unto the sight of God
A simple toss of sod, goodbye
A decent burial
Such an important way
For your respects to say
Goodbye
Brush the cheek
Wipe the eye
Goodbye
Scatter ashes on the sea
Sing A Closer Walk With Thee
All is well
Safely rest
Goodbye
