there Is our darling boyl

Where Is our darling bSyl
He dwells with the angels Of light:
God came and called him home;
He lives where there Is no night
He was a lovely plant,
Called hence by early doom;
He came to show how sweet a flower
In Paradise W ould bloom.
sweeter blossom never bloomcd
In this cold world Of ours:
But now above the bright blue sky.
With snowy wings he soars-
Yes, can smile through all our pain;
A crown of life our darling wears;
He does not feel the dark cold earth,
The grave to him sweet rest appears.
Think, sweet sisters brother Willie,
Think of Malcolm meath the sod
Think how bright and fair lily
Blooms in the garden Of our God.
We know he is with God,
And wears a golden crown,
Where pain and sickness never c"me
Sorrow, care, or frOwn-
Then, let US try to live,
That when We come to die
We may receive a home with God,
And our darling now high.
