Like your parents who dwell in the cold world

Oh Darling one. feel That you are free,

IN that beautiful home where you know nol

oh wiz did weep when I saw Jon go home,
For Jesus was with you he called you his own.
feel you are happy in Heaven above;
There Jesus reigns in mercy and love.
know shall miss you in my home in the west,
RI1t oh dearest Sainie, you dwell with the blest-
No more shall meet you until life is ore.
Then trust shall greet you on Canaan : FAIR
shore.
Since you went away whom 1 once called my
own.
! feel a greater interest il Heavens bright
lrOne.
I thought that without you I could never be

But know that my darling to 1at you was

Trusting we shall meet where the bright wa

Twill try TO make home happy while here do
dwell,
And trust in our Savior who doeth all things
