Funeral Text: Philippians 1 vs. 21-23 21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour: yet what I shall choose I wot not. 23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better: Verse: (paraphrase of text) "For to me to live is Christ, having a desire to depart and to be with Christ"
