Kind Words by Paul McKenzie -
For kind words, there is a spring.
For kind words, has no sins.
For kind words, we sing.
For kind words, are good and righteous.
For kind words, mirror holiness.
For kind words, are not only uttered by saints.
For kind words, are eternal and the norm in heaven.
For kind words, from you comes through to me.
For kind words, are the maker of saints.
For kind words, I reply, thank you, you are kind to me.
For kind words, are blessings between you and me.
Due to Covid, there will be no memorial service. In lieu of flowers, please show kindness to the next person who is in need of an uplift.
