There is sadness in the household,
When the shades of death draw nigh;
There is gloom and desolation
When we say the last good bye.
They who've loved us from our child
hood,
Helped us all our griefs to bear;
When they're gone from us forever,
How we miss them everywhere!
There are mansions in the heavens,
Free from DEATH and passing fair;
# through Christ we gain an entrance,
May we find our loved ones there.
