God needed one more angle Amidst his shining band, So he bent with loving care, And clasped our papa's hand. The golden gates were opened wide, A gentle voice said, “come,” And angles on the other side Welcomed our dear papa home. Our papa is gone but not for gotten Never will his memory fade Sweetest thought will ever linger Around the grave where he is laid. And if our fellowship below With papa was so sweet, What height of rapture shall we know When round God's throne we meet. There are none to our hearts more dear Yet again we hope to meet When this weary life is o’er And in heaven with joy to greet him. We shall meet to part no more. Erom him to part seems very hard But let God have his way We’ll follow in his footsteps And meet our papa some sweet day. His loving daughter, La panlia.
