Our bud of promise there to live, The life but here begun, And may we say, e'en mid our tears, Thy will, not ours, be done. All things in nature seem to fade, The Autumn leaves and flowers, All things remind us life and death, Pervade this world of ours. So let the curtain fall that hides, The future from our sight. 'Twill rise, and we'll behold at length, The glorious realm of light.'

Little hands that lead you there, When you knelt in evening prayer, Are cold in death, but hovering near, His little spirit your prayers do hear. Parents, my little voice is fled, And I am silent with the dead. My pitcher is most filled with tears, But do not murmer, you'll soon be here. When grandma comes, oh, tell her why, God took me up to live on high. My little clothes and chair now take, And keep them for my memory's sake.
