THE LAST CALL.
Oh, how we miss thee. our friend and brother
How we miss thy smiling face. ?
In your place can come no other,
None can fill the vacant space.
Dare we question Gods mighty power
In this awful hour of woe?
Dare we raise our voice i'll anguish
'Gainst this untimely blow?
All. how our hearts are filled with suffering
And re cannOt yet forget
The cherished memory of our friend,
Our All, our ret.
What, will we see his face no more.
Gaze not again on that form 50 straight?
What misery, what agOniZlng moments
Are dealt out by fate!
No, no, he is not dead;
He has not passed this earthly sphere.
He cannot die in our hearts;
He will come back year by year.
His spirit will DER us hover
And lend us Peace and Grace,
And IN our deepest memory
His face will find a place..
And our hearts will beat in accord.
And our lips will breathe a prayer
For oui noble sainted brother
Who has been called up There.
And God in His mercy will show
Him l~eniency and grace,
For cOgniZant is He of the grief
For which there's no solace.
All, God, in your infinite mercy
Fake him to your heart,
For you alone realize
What it is to part.
Teach US to reconcile ourselves
To your Heavenly will,
For we need y0ui help, . Lord.
For bitter, indeed, is the pill.
And canse your abundant mercy to How
Into the hearts OF all
For each and every one will need 1t
When they hear of your Last Call.

When every peasant lived in clover
And in the pleasant woodland ways.

When all was honest, large and true,
And naught was hollow or theatric-
