She has gone, our hearts are bleeding,
Our great loss we scarce can bear;
But we know that she is pleading
Gods great love our grief to share.
We will cast our burdens on Him,
Trust Him as He bids us do,
Though the road seems rough TO walk in
His strong hand can lead us through.
So farewell, our blessed treasure
You have climbed the golden stair;
When we bide the Savior's pleasure
We shall find you waiting there.
