Her loss to deeply mourn.
Her earthly troubles now are over;
She is resting free from pain;
Though we deeply mourn her loss,
Yet we know It's heavens gain.
Her Heavenly Father has called her,
From her diligent work here;
from her friends, home and loved ones,
Held in loving ties so dear.
But we know that we shall meet her,
Over on the other shore,
Where there come no hours of sadness,
And where death shall be no more.
Neither is there pain or sorrow,
In that realm of endless day;
)nce for all and once forever,
God shall wipe all tears away
