Obituary of Manuel Fernandes

Manuel Fernandes God looked around his gardenAnd He found an empty place.He then looked down upon his earth,And saw your tired face.He put his arms around youAnd lifted you to rest.God’s garden must be beautiful He always takes the best.He knew that you were sufferingHe knew that you were in PainHe knew that you would neverGet well on earth again.He saw that the road was getting rough,So he closed your weary eyelids,And whispered “Peace be thine”It broke our hearts to lose youBut you didn’t go aloneFor part of us went with you The day God called you home.Ave-MariaAve, Maria, cheia de graça, o Senhor é convosco,bendita sois vós entre as mulheres e bendito é o fruto do vosso ventre, Jesus.Santa Maria, Mãe de Deus, rogai por nós, pecadores, agora e na hora da nossa morte.Amén.
