IN MEMORIAM

In loving remembrance of my deal
husband who died two years ago.
No one knew you but to love you,
No one knew you but to praise you,
| loved you; yes loved you,
But Jesus loved you more,
And He has sweetly called you
To yonder shining shore.
The golden gates were open,
A gentle voice said, Come,
And with farewell unspoken
You calmly entered home.
Oh how sudden was the summons,
When we knew that you we're dead;
But little they know of sorrow
That's within my heart concealed.
Brighten the corner where you are,
God took you home, it was his will;
We only knew your young life fled
Though you could say good bye.
Sleep on Bernard, and take thy rest,
| miss you most who loves you best;
But in my heart you are living still
Now, Bernard you are not forgotten,
Nor will you ever be.
For as long as life and memory last,
| will always think of thee.
Your loving wife
