PV.1 After Glow

AFTER GLOW
I’d Like The Memory Of Me To Be A Happy One, I’d Like To Leave An Afterglow Of Smiles When Day Is Done.

I’d Like To Leave An Echo Whispering Softly Down The Ways, Of Happy Times And Laughing Times And Bright And Sunny Days.

I’d Like The Tears Of Those Who Grieve To Dry Before The Sun, Of Happy Memories That I Leave Behind When Day Is Done.

PV. 5 Policeman's Prayer

Policeman’s Prayer
Dear Lord, Be With Me On
My Beat This Day And Every Day.
Grant That Each Weary Block I
Walk, May Ease A Brothers Way.
Let Me Be Kindly To The Old And

If According To Your Plan, I

With Your Protecting Hand My
Children And My Wife.

When I Am Called To Duty, God, Whenever Flames May Rage;
Give Me Strength To Save Some Life, Whatever Be Its Age. Help Me Embrace A Little Child Before It Is Too Late,
Or Save An Older Person From The Horror Of That Fate. Enable Me To Be Alert And Hear The Weakest Shout,
And Quickly And Efficiently, To Put The Fire Out. I Want To Fill My Calling And To Give The Best In Me,
To Guard My Every Neighbor And Protect His Property.
And If, According To My Fate, I Am To Lose My Life,
Please Bless With Your Protecting, My Children And My Wife.

PV. 7 FootPrints

Footprints
One Night A Man Had A Dream. He Dreamed
He Was Walking Along The Beach With The Lord.
Across The Sky Flashed Scenes From His Life. For
Each Scene, He Noticed Two Sets Of Footprints In
The Sand; One Belonged To Him, And The Other To
The Lord. When The Last Scene Of His Life Flashed
Before Him, He Looked Back At The Footprints
In The Sand. He Noticed That Many Times Along
The Path Of His Life There Was Only One Set Of
Footprints. He Also Noticed That It Happened At
The Very Lowest And Saddest Times Of His Life.
This Really Bothered Him And He Questioned
The Lord About It. “Lord, You Said That Once I
Decided To Follow You, You’d Walk With Me All
The Way. But I Have Noticed That During The
Most Troublesome Times In My Life, There Is Only
One Set Of Footprints. I Don’t Understand Why
When I Needed You Most You Would Leave Me.”
The Lord Replied, “My Precious, Precious Child,
I Love You And I Would Never Leave You. During
Your Times Of Trial And Suffering When You See
Only One Set Of Footprints,
It Was Then That ICarried You.”

PV. 8 Hail Mary

Hail Mary, Full Of Grace!
The Lord Is With Thee;
Blessed Art Thou Among

The Hour Of Our Death.
Amen.

PV. 9 O Most Gracious, Virgin Mary

O Most Gracious, Virgin Mary
Remember, O Most Gracious Virgin Mary, That Never Was It Known That Anyone Who Fled To Thy Protection, Implored Thy Help Or Sought Thy Intercession, Was Left Unaided. Inspired With This Confidence, I Fly Unto Thee, O Virgin Of Virgins, My Mother, To Thee Do I Come, Before Thee I Stand, Sinful And Sorrowful. O Mother Of The Word Incarnate, Despise Not My Petitions, But In Thy Mercy Hear And Answer Me.
Amen.

PV. 10 You can only have one Mother

You Can Only Have One Mother
You Can Only Have One Mother,
Patient, Kind And True,
No Other Friend In All The World Will Be TheSame To You.
When Other Friends Forsake You,
To Mother You Will Return,
For All Her Loving Kindness,
She Asks Nothing In Return.
As We Look Upon Her Picture,
Sweet Memories We Recall,
Of A Face So Full Of Sunshine,
And A Smile For One And All.
Sweet Jesus Take This Message,
To Our Dear Mother Up Above,
Tell Her How We Miss Her,
And Give Her All Our Love.

PV. 11 This is Mother

This Is Mother

Let Me Paint Her If I May
As I See Her Day By Day.

With Two Bright Eyes That Ever Shine
Like The Votive In A Shrine.
Gently, Saintly, Tender Hearted
For Her Virtue Never Parted;
This Is Mother

PV. 12. O Gentlest Heart of Jesus

O Gentlest Heart Of Jesus
O Gentlest Heart Of Jesus, Ever Present In The Blessed Sacrament,
Ever Consumed With Burning Love For The Poor Captive Souls In Purgatory,
Have Mercy On The Soul Of Thy Departed Servant.
Be Not Severe In Thy Judgment But Let Some Drops Of Thy Precious Blood Fall Upon The Devouring Flames,
And Do Thou O Merciful Saviour,
Send Thy Angels To Conduct Thy Departed Servant To A Place Of Refreshment,
Light And Peace.

Amen.

The Lord Is My Shepherd; I Shall Not Want. He Maketh Me To Lie Down In Green Pastures: He Leadeth Me Beside The Still Waters. He Restoreth My Soul: He Leadeth Me In The Paths Of Righteousness For His Name’s Sake. Yea, Though I Walk Through The Valley Of The Shadow Of Death I Will Fear No Evil For Thou Art With Me; Thy Rod And Thy Staff They Comfort Me.

And Hug Your Sorrow To You Through The Years.

Live On And Do All The Things The Same.

Feed Not Your Loneliness On Empty Days, But Fill Each Waking Hour In Useful Ways,
Reach Out Your Hand In Comfort And In Cheer And I In Turn Will Comfort You And Hold You Near;

And Never, Never Be Afraid To Die, For I Am Waiting For You In The Sky!

PV. 26 God saw you getting tired.

God Saw You Were Getting Tired,
And A Cure Was Not To Be,
So He Put His Arms Around You And Whispered “Come To Me.”
With Tearful Eyes We Watched You,
And Saw You Pass Away. Although We Loved You Dearly,
We Could Not Make You Stay. A Golden Heart Stopped Beating,
Hard Working Hands At Rest,
God Broke Our Hearts To Prove To Us, He Only Takes The Best.

PV. 27 Miss Me - But Let Me Go"

Miss Me - But Let Me Go
When I Come To The End Of The Road And The Sun Has Set For Me,
I Want No Rites In A Gloom Filled Room Why Cry For A Soul Set Free?
Miss Me A Little - But Not Too Long And Not With Your Head Bowed Low,
Remember The Love That We Once Shared Miss Me - But Let Me Go.
For This Journey That We All Must Take And Each Must Go Alone,
It’s All A Part Of The Master’s Plan A Step On The Road To Home.
When You Are Lonely And Sick Of Heart Go To The Friends We Know,
And Bury Your Sorrows In Doing Good Deeds. Miss Me - But Let Me Go...
