A Tib BUTE OF LOVE,
what sorrow to tell to the world!
o uv dear mother inhere no more;
Sho has ended the toils of life,
And is resting on the farther shore.
Her days were filled with trouble;
Many trials came into her way;
Ifet patiently she pressed forward
Towaid a purer, brighter day.
She lived for her yhildi-cn and God;
To film she gave .praises and love
And many admonitions that we
Might ail unite in Heaven above.
She taught us, in infancy, to pray
To one who is able to keep
U« from all bavut during the day,
yt, l( j watches o’er us wiiile we steep
Kvet faithfu? ar.d ready, she tried
To cast, out of our beans the fears
That gather on lift’s pathway;
Amt, to wipe away all our tears,
When we enter our darkened home
\\ < ui-.li wi mu man » t >*■ g >a ■>
A deep sadness comes o’er our hearts
And a dark shadow falls on our
As out of sleep, -quietly she left, us;
In Jesus, no doubt, she’s sleeping,
Watching and waiting for us all,
While we, in sadness, are weeping.
O Father, give us the courage
To humbly submit to Thy will!
And wilt Thou be our guardian,
And let us be Thy loved ones
Oon.nkient clod, protect ns,
And may Thy grace be given
That we may so live on the earth
That we may meet mother in Heaven.
