Their loss is also ours, but to her the change is an infinite gain.

Sister Agnes thou hast left us, / Yet we hope to meet in heaven, / There such parting as we've passed through / Ne'er to any will be given.

We shall miss you in our Lodge room, / All will miss you as a friend, / For to know you was to love you / As our members will respond

You have passed on just before us, / You will marshal us along, / You will sing the song of welcome / As we join the heavenly throng.

Yes, we hope to meet you Agnes, / Where all is happiness and joy, / There we'll join with you the chorus / Of the Angelic hosts on High.
