How hard we tried to save you.
Prayers and tears were all in
vain,
Happy angels came and bore
you
From this world of pain.
You bade no one a last fare

A last farewell you couM

How often we think of
when we are alone.
For memory is the only thing
That grief can call its on.
Out in the silent graveyard,
Beneath the sod and dew,
Not even once forgotten.
