The fairest lilies are the first to fall,
The sweetest first 10 fade:
The fondest. dearest. best of all,
At peaceful rest is laid.
As some sweet blossom droops and dies
When blighted by the frost.
She faded from before our eyes
And all too soon was lost.
But in Gods garden free from pain,
Where grow His fairest flowers.
We know that we shall meet again,
This fairest bloom of ours.
No stain was on her little heart,
Sin had not entered there:
And innocence slept sweetly on
That pale white brow so fair.
She was too pure for this cold earth,
Too beautiful to stay.
And so Gods holy angel bore
Our darling away.
MOTHER AND FATHER
Our lips cannot tell how we miss her,
Our hearts cannot tell what to cay:
God alone knows how we miss her
In a home that is lonesome today.
The depths of sorrow we cannot tell.
OF the loss of one we loved so we'll.
And while she sleeps a peaceful sleep
Her memory we shall always keep.
Deep in the heart lies . picture
OF a loved one laid 10 rest
In memorys frame we shall keep IL.
Because she was one of the best.
