This is Gods wonderful work. Who can under
stand it? Truely God moves in mysterious
way. But Jesus whispers " 1t is l. be not afraid"
All things work together for good to them that
love God, and in our deep sorrow and out of our
great grief we say, the Lord gave and the Lord
hath taken away; blessed be the name Of the
Lord. The Master has plucked these flowers
from the home garden here and planted them in
the Home garden above to bloom in the realms
of beauty. They departed from their friends on
earth and go to their and our friends in Heaven.
They depart from the valley of tears and go to
the Mount of Joy from Il region where death
reigns into the region Of perfect and everlasting
life. Death argues no displcasure because those
whom God loves best, die.
Dear Parents you have suffered much in the
departure of your dear children, but suppose
now some one was making a beautiful crown for
you to wear and that you were to receive it and
wear it as soon as it should be done. Now if the
maker of it were to come and in order to make
the crown more beautiful, and splendid, were to
take some of your jewels to put into it, should
you be sorrowful and unhappy because they were
taken away a little while when you knew they
were gone to make your crown?
Some of our number have departed
To their glorious home above
And while we mourn We'll be light hearted
For theyr resting in his love.
Ere long we all will be called over,
And meet each other there.
To live in joy with God forever
Free from sorrow, toll and care.
Farther on in the realms of beauty.
Far away on the golden shore,
Pressing on in the line OF duty,
We shall meet to part no more
