It's hard for us to part in death
With one whom we so dearly love;

And is standing there with the blest
And ransOmei who all re there.

She has gone forevermore to rest
In the bosom of Almighty God.
Sadly we laid her away to rest

While she standing among the blest,
Awaits US in realms above to greet.
May God comfort the mourners,
AS they sadly return from the grave,
Of their loved one, for whom
