Into the darkness and warmth of the earth
We lay you down
Into the sadness and smiles of our memories
We lay you down
Into the cycle of living and dying and rising again
We lay you down

May you rest in peace, in fulfillment, in loving
May you run straight home in God’s embrace.

Into the freedom of wind and sunshine
We let you go
Into the dance of the stars and the planets
We let you go
Into the wind’s breath and the hands of the star maker
We let you go

We love you, we miss you, we want you to be happy
Go safely, go dancing, go running home.
