On Thursday the 15th November 2001 Heather's family and people who loved her gathered together at Falkirk Baptist church for a formal funeral service, which was followed by a burial at the Hills of Dunipace Cemetary and refreshments at Denny Baptist Church. For Rene and I, the main purpose of the service, was to praise God for the ten weeks he gave us with our beautiful daughter, for chosing us to be her parents, and to trust Heather into God's care. The service was deeply moving and God was definately present. Here are the lyrics to the songs and hymns we sang at the service: I give you all the honour I give you all the honour And praise that's due your name For you are the king of glory The creator of all things And I worship you I give my life to you I fall down on my knees Yes I worship you I give my life to you I fall down on my knees As Your Spirit moves upon me now, You meet my deepest need, And I lift my hands up to Your throne, Your mercy I've received. You have broken chains that bound me, You've set this captive free. I will lift my voice to praise Your name, For all eternity. Because He Lives God sent His son, they called Him Jesus He came to love, heal, and forgive. He lived and died to buy my pardon, An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives. Because He lives, I can face tomorrow. Because He lives, All fear is gone. Because I know He holds the future, And life is worth the living just because He lives. How sweet to hold a newborn baby, And feel the pride and joy he gives. But greater still the calm assurance, This child can face uncertain days because He lives. Because He lives, I can face tomorrow. Because He lives, All fear is gone. Because I know He holds the future, And life is worth the living just because He lives. And then one day I'll cross the river, I'll fight life's final war with pain. And then as death gives way to victory, I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives. Because He lives, I can face tomorrow. Because He lives, All fear is gone! Because I know He holds the future And life is worth the living just because He lives! Jesus Loves Me Jesus loves me! This I know, For the Bible tells me so. Little ones to Him belong; They are weak, but He is strong. Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so. Jesus loves me! He who died Heaven’s gate to open wide; He will wash away my sin, Let His little child come in. Our confidence is in the lord Our confidence is in the lord the source of our salvation rest is found in him alone the author of creation we will not fear the evil day because we have a refuge in every circumstance we say "our hope is built on Jesus" He is our fortress, we will never be shaken He is our fortress, we will never be shaken He is our fortress, we will never be shaken He is our fortress, we will never be shaken We will put our trust in God We will put our trust in God Shout To The Lord! My Jesus, my Saviour, Lord there is none like you. All of my days, I want to praise, the wonders of your mighty love. My comfort, my shelter; Tower of refuge and strength. Let every breath, all that I am, never cease to worship you! Shout to the Lord, all the earth, let us sing Power and Majesty, Praise to the King Mountains bow down, and the seas will roar At the sound of your name! I sing for joy at the works of your hands. Forever I'll love you, forever I'll stand. Nothing compares to the promise I have in you! You are my sunshine You are my sunshine My only sunshine You make me happy When skies are grey You'll never know, Dear How much I love you And you'll never take my sunshine away
