1t is sweet TO know We will meet again
Where parting is more.
And that the We loved so dearly
Has only gone before.
A happy home we once enjoyed
How sweet the memory still
But death has left n lonesomeness
The world. can never fill.
For we think We hear you singing
With the angels of Jesus there.
Where no sorrow come near you
And He takes away all care.
SO well try and still our heartarhes
And do hest TO smile.
For God viii let yna
After a little while.
