Tears of sorrow may be wiped aways
bleeding hearts may be healed, and time
may level the grave of our beloved mother,
but on the page of memory lndelble i'm
pressed, there will ever remain fond re-
collections of the one we loved so we'll, and
the one we shall see no more. Gone bot
not forgotten. Dead but not unloved. The
sweet voice and smiling face that used to
greet us will greet us now no more fol
ever.
Mother, we are very lonely,
Our loss we deeply feel,
Yet He who has bereft us
Can all our sorrows heal
We miss our loving Mother dear,
We miss her loving face,
Her vacant chair tells plainly there
Never she'll fill this place.
Oh Lord, teach us to say,
Thy will be done,
And soon we'll meet with Parent dear
And then we'll rest at home.
