I know thou art gone to the land of the blest, / Then why should my soul be so sad; / I know thou art gone where the weary do rest / And the mourner looks up and is glad. / I know that thy sufferings are o'er. / And from sorrow and sin thou art free. / But Alas! I shall see thee no more, / Thou dearest of dear ones to me.

When we see a precious blossom / That we tended with such care, / Rudely taken from our bosom, / How our aching hearts despair.
Round its little grave we linger / Till the setting sun is low, / Telling all our hopes have perished / With the form we cherish so.
We shall sleep, but not forever, / There will be a glorious dawn; / We shall meet to part, no, never, / on the Resurrection morn.
