Description: Composed for the funeral service of Shirley Miller (1929–2023) in a Romantic-period style that she would have loved. The three sentences set were chosen by her son and follow the modern English version from The Church of England's website. The sentences can also be performed independently — No. 2 would work well as a short anthem.
