IN MY LIFE
(John Lennon, Paul McCartney)
There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever and not for better
Some are gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With people and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
But in my life, I loved them all
But of all these friends and loved ones
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and friends that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
But in my life I loved you more
If We Never Meet Again
(Albert E. Brumley)
Soon we'll come to the end of life's journey
And perhaps we'll never meet anymore
Till we gather in heaven's bright city
Far away on that beautiful shore
If we never meet again this side of heaven
As we struggle through this world and its strife
There's another meeting place somewhere in heaven
By the beautiful river of life
Where the charming roses bloom forever
And separations come no more
If we never meet again this side of heaven
I will meet you on that beautiful shore
These two songs are sung one right after the other in a song off of the Selah cd "Press On".
I used to listen to this cd over and over again. I would sing the 1st song off the cd to Miss D when she was a baby. I hadn't listened to the cd for a about a year and then I decided to put it in the cd player. Well... the songs that I listed above meant something totally different to me. A wave of emotion came over me when this song number 3 came on and I pushed through the song knowing that as I listened healing would come. I can now listen to this song over and over again because it reminds me of my Hazel and of my Jesus.

beautiful, thank you for sharing.
Hey Chele ~
I have that CD! It was my mom's and the song Press On was her song that she listened to every night and sometimes during the day when things started to get really hard for her. And then it was played at her funeral. I have a hard time listening to the CD even now. But I will never get rid of it, it means so much too me! Thanks for sharing and reminding me of the one who will always be missed! Love you girl!
