What a Wonderful World By Israel Kamakawiwo’ole
Trees of green and Red roses too I’ll watch them bloom For me and you And I think to myself What a wonderful world Well I see skies of blue And I see clouds of white And the brightness of day I like the dark And I think to myself What a wonderful world The colors of the rainbow So pretty in the sky Are also on the faces Of people passing by See friends shaking hands Saying, “How do you do” They’re really saying, “I, I love you” I hear babies cry and I watch them grow They’ll learn much more Than we’ll know And I think to myself What a wonderful world

I'm Free Memorial Service for Don't grieve for me now, for now I'm free I'm following the path God has laid you see. I took his hand when I heard his call I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day To laugh, to love, to work or play. Tasks left undone must stay that way I found the peace at the close of day. If my parting has left a void Then fill it with remembered joys A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss Oh yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow. My life's been full, I savored much, Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your hearts, and peace to thee God wanted me now; He set me free.
