We will always remember you (male version)
What he suffered, he told but few,
he did not deserve what he went through,
Tired and weary he made no fuss,
But tried so hard to stay with us.
Two tired eyes are sleeping,
Two willing hands are still;
The one who worked so hard for us,
Is resting at God’s will.
Our lips cannot speak how we love him,
Our hearts cannot tell what to say,
But God only knows how we miss him,
In our home that is lonely today.
Your life was love and labour,
Your love for your family true,
You did your best for all of us,
We will always remember you.

What she suffered, she told but few,
She did not deserve what she went through,
Tired and weary she made no fuss,
But tried so hard to stay with us.
Two tired eyes are sleeping,
Two willing hands are still;
The one who worked so hard for us,
Is resting at God’s will.
Our lips cannot speak how we love her,
Our hearts cannot tell what to say,
But God only knows how we miss her,
In our home that is lonely today.
Your life was love and labour,
Your love for your family true,
You did your best for all of us,
We will always remember you.
