Was brought through Mait1and.;6 waters
To peace and glorious rest.
Wo miss him from our ftresids
As the evening star appears,
We miss hie joyous laughter
Through the house, now sad and drear.
Ho used to joinoar songs of joy,
With gladness and delight ;
But now he's singing sweeter songs,
In that blosesd land of light.
But now although we mourn for hint,
We would not wish him back,
For he is happier now with God,
In that land of pure delight.
May we live eo as to moat him,
In that botter world above,
Where God, the Father, reignobh,
And all in joy and love.
