(Dallas-AP) -- A poem written by Lisa Landry Childress that was read at both of Tom Landry's memorial services. It was read by former Dallas quarterback Roger Staubach. Here it is:

His love is greater than the expanse of the sea.
He died a cruel death to save you and me.
Although we continue to sin day after day,
He forgives us and leads us back his way.
His path is straight and narrow you see.
But if we follow his leading, in his will we'll be.
This world gives no lasting pleasure.
But his kingdom is full of riches beyond measure.
Remember to always look above the sun,
Until that final day when his will shall be done.
The Lord in his glory will ride on a cloud,
And trumpets will blast in the Heavens so loud
To call his children home at last.
Never to look back to those things that are past,
Our bodies will become glorious and perfectly made,
For Christ made sure our ransom was paid.
