Sister, thou vast mild and lovely,
Gentle as the summers breeze,
Pleasant as the air of evening,
When it floats among the trees.
Peaceful be thy silent slumber,
Peaceful i'll the grave SO low;
Thou no more will join our number.
Thou no more our songs shalt know.
Dearest sister, thou hast left us,
Here thy loss we deeply feel
But tbs God that hath bereft us,
He can all our sorrows heal.
Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life has fed,
Then in Heaven with JOY to greet thee,
Where no farewell tear is shed.
By her sister, S. +. G.
