Your tears are just temporary relief.
Your tears are just a release of the pain, sorrow, grief.
Your tears are expressions that can't controlled.
A little crying out is alright,
but after awhile you won't have to cry no more;
don't you worry, God's gonna wipe every tear away.
Chorus 1
I won't have to cry no more,
I won't have to cry no more,
I won't have to cry no more
when I reach the other shore.
You promised me joy and peace,
oh what a blessed, sweet relief,
Chorus 2
He's gonna wipe, wipe,
wipe all of my tears away.
Bridge
Wepping may endure for a night,
joy will come in the morning.
Hold on to His unchanging hand,
brand new day is to come.
Chorus 2
Chorus 1
He's gonna wipe,
wipe,
wipe,
wipe.
I Can Speak and say that Whatever You are going through, God will see you through. The Sun will still shine upon You. God will still hold you. It will be alright in the Morning it will not last forever you will have Joy,there will be peace, no more suffering, there will be Season of pain, sorrow, joy,happiness. In EACH SEASON OF OUR LIFE GOD IS STILL THERE with US.SENDING ALL MY LOVE AND PRAYERS TO MY EXTENDED FAMILY

On behalf of Women Veterans of Louisiana, we send our prayers and sympathies to the family of Ms. Cowart. We salute her service in the military and we send you this poem that God has inspired to honor her.
She is a woman veteran
Whose service was true
She proudly served
The Red, White and Blue
She gave a part of her life
So others could be free
And without hesitation
She joined unselfishly
She did her job well
With Honor and Pride
And served her great country
With the men alongside
We're proud today to know
That although she is gone
She goes onto glory
After a job "well done"
And so our "Dear Sister"
We salute you today
A special soldier laid to rest
In a quiet solemn way.
We regret we are unable to attend her services. God bless the family and know that our prayers are with you.
February 19, 2011
Cris and Barbara,you have our deepest sympathy in your time of sorrow may Christie rest in the arms of our Heavenly Father.

To the Shipman/Cowart Family:
Miss her, But Let her Go
Christie came to the end of life's journey. And the sun has set for her,
she want no rites in a gloom filled room
Why cry for a soul set free!
Miss her a little, but not for long,
And not with your head bowed low.
Remember the love you all once shared,
Miss her, but let me go!
For this is a journey we all must take,
And each must go alone;
It's all a part of the master's plan
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick of heart
Look up to the hills from which come your help, your help comes from the Lord,
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds, Miss her, but let her go.
We love each of you, from your extended family, Olivia, Carlton, Jawanna, Edward & Wayne.
