better recommendation could any

WHAT MAKES THE
TEAR DROPS START?
What makes our eyes fill up with
tears?
AS they do most every day
Is 1t some thought ofbygoue years
Some word we did not say?
When little child Is born to earth
Pressed closely to our hearts
Amidst Joy and loving mirth
What makes the teardrops start!
We cannot see, It's this my friend
Away through the future years
How this little life must end
But hope through binding tears.
Why, when we look with a parents
pride
On our handsome hayward son
And speak with care and gently
chide,
Oh, why does the tear drops run?
What makes us look at him and
say
The words we are loath to speak
To be our son he must obey
While the tears course down our
cheek,
Why, when we hear the wedding
/, march
That Stirs Our very SOUL
What Is the prayer our lips impart
AS down our cheeks they roll.
What nakes US when we see
thu bride,
At the alter tat,-e the vow,
Hide q sob for very pride,
What makes the teas start now!
And then again wheb We stand,
BY. our aged mothers bier
Dropping on her folded hands
The bitterest of all tears.
What makes Us kneel In agony?
When our father Is called to 90,
Is there no thought Is there no
Plea?
To stop there over flow.
And then 1t seems that fate
Takes their sister and our wife,
We Sigh we know 1t Is too late
And shed them all through life.
When we see a husbands loving
form
Laid in the grave so low,
We faint in grief upon their arm
Then the tears come hard we know
BUT when we are called ourselves
to 60
The tears we then will shed,
Will be for the ones we have left
blow
Not for the loving dead.
When some thoughtless friend
Sends words like poisoned darts
That probes our lives to the very
end
Then the tears have cause to
start.
But God is wise and this we know
He bathes our souls Ia tears,
So that our hardened hearts will
grow
SoFtened for all eternity's years.
