Here is love vast as the ocean

Loving Kindness as the Flood

When the Prince of Life, our Ransom

Shed for us his precious blood

Who is love will not remember

Who can cease to sing his praise

He will never be forgotten

Throughout Heaven's eternal days

The love of a faithful mum over fifty years of parenting, listening, being there.

The love of an aunt willing to drive 5 hours to be at a family gathering bringing homemade marmalade, shortbread. The effervescent aunt and uncle whose consistent welcome, delight and interest in us is really immense.

The thrill of being together, so precious. The laughter.
