Briogaid Dhoire
a fuair bas ar an 11u Nollaig 2016
ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam
I am home in heaven, dear ones;
Oh so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.
All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing passed;
I am now at peace forever,
Safely home in heaven at last.
Did you wonder how I so calmly
Trod the valley of the shade?
Oh, but Jesus' love illumined
Every dark and fearful glade.
And he came himself to meet me
In that way so hard to tread;
And with Jesus' arm to lean on,
Could I have one doubt or dread?
Then you must not grieve so sorely,
For I love you dearly still;
Try to look beyond earth's shadows,
Pray to trust our Father's will.
There is work still waiting for you,
So you must not idly stand;
Do it now, while life remains,
You shall rest in Jesus' land.
When that work is all completed,
He will gently call you home;
Oh, the rapture of that meeting,
Oh, the joy to see you come!
St. Pio intercede for him.
A Mhuire, Banríon na nGael
Guigh ar a shon
Forever loved and missed by Mum and Dad, brother Ciaran and sister Orlaigh, also Gerald and Conan.
All your Nieces and Nephews and Godson Fechin.
Life springs from death; and from the graves of patriot men and women spring living nations
