Lyrics
We'll Meet Again
We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
Keep smiling through,
Just like you always do
Till the blue skies drive the dark clouds far away
So will you please say "Hello"
To the folks that I know
Tell them I won't be long
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go
I was singing this song
We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day.
Keep smiling through
Just like you always do,
'Til the blue skies
Drive the dark clouds far away
So will you please say "Hello"
To the folks that I know.
Tell them I won't be long.
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go,
I was singin' this song.
We'll meet again,
Don't know where,
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
We lost our 7 year old and had the song "Somewhere Out There" played as we exited the Church. It had a significance to us but people that didn't know that, thought it was a touching song for a child's funeral.
Best place I know of for poetry and blessings, is the Bible. Has been used for eons. . .
Hubs has ordered, for when the time comes, Daddy's Hands.(Secular, but fitting.) . .lol ! He means for his kids to boo hoo ! ! An absolute, do not use, is Tears in My Beer ~ used at a friend's dad's send off ! As you see by the pages and pages of suggestions. . . . personalize the service to the loved one's liking ~ and hopefully, you have had time to sort this out before hand.

Hi AllisonCS, Thanks for your comments. Unfortunately, I don't know of any sites like that off the top of my head. However I'm sure you could find some great poems like that by doing a few google searches. Good luck!! -- Emily | Community Manager
Would like to know of a website that has memorial type poetry...to be used at funerals or memorials. Some uplifting...in gratitude for those we leave behind.
Is there a place to find appropriate memorial poetry of various "personalities" -- uplifting and grateful to those we leave behind?
It would be helpful to have a list of all titles before printing any lyrics --thanks!
Great thread - many of our families choose these songs and the ceremonies turn out beautifully. Another thing to consider is picking out specific poems/readings you'd like to have at your loved one's funeral. Our best advice is to try to match your selections with the personality of your loved one, so that he or she is properly remembered in a way true to his or her character.
