In Loving Memory-of
Little Lawrence Smith
On the morning of Dec. 2, 1918,
the little son of Mr. and Mrs. John
Smith of Atlanta died at its grand
parents’, Mr. and Mrs. Will Allen.
Lawrence was only 15 months old
when he left his home in this
world to live with Jesus in that
bright home above. He went to
meet his little brother, who had
gone on before something over a
year ago. And in the hearts of
the fond parents and loved ones
there is an aching void, a burden
of sorrow save the compassionate
Lord can lift. Those brown eyes
are forever closed, but the happy
spirit lives on, and those dear
eyes are watching us from above
and the little hands are beckoning
come. Its playthings are put a
way; its little bed is empty, and
the little chair is vacant, but
put your trust alone in Jesus, for
He makes no mistakes. It only
draws us nearer heaven when
our loved ones are taken away.
Everything was done for it that
could be done, but God saw best
to take it above.
We had a little treasure once,
He was our joy and pride.
We loved him ah! perhaps too well,
For soon he slept and died.
All is dark within our dwelling,
Lonely are our hearts today,
For the one we loved so dearly
Has forever passed away.
Another little lamb is gone
To dwell with Him who gave,
Another little darling babe is sheltered
in the grave,
God needed one more angel amidst his
shining band.
And so he bent with loving smile and
and clasped our darling child
* A Friend.
