Beneath the sod of earth and clay,
In the pure white robes angels wear
With brow surprisingly fair,
Glory crowned, she'll soar to caress,
Her loved here. and linger TO bless.
Oh the joy the transporting bliss
The light. the love- the angels kiss
The melody and fragrant flowers,
Ever in those spirit bowers.
