Rest, gentle traveller, on life's toilsome way

She always made home

Servant of God, well done! .

She waited for the summons, lengthening days

Since thy Father's arm sustains thee

Sleep, tired cne, sleep.

Sometime, when all life's lessons have been learned

Straight and still the baby lies

Such beautiful, beautiful hands

She was down in the valley

Take them, O death, and bear away

There is no death! The stars go down

There is no flock, however watched and tended.
There's not an hour but from some sparkling beach
They sat in peace in the sunshine

Those we love truly never die

Thou that art strong to comfort

To pass through life beloved as few are loved.
To weary hearts, to mourning homes
Twilight falls, a tiny maiden

Tho I cannot calati sighs
Until we meet again, that is the meaning

We know not what it is, dear

We must not doubt, or fear, or dread

*We need some charmer, for our hearts are sore
We watched her breathing through the night
We wreathed about our darling's head
What shall I do with all the days and hours
What may we take into the vast forever
What did we ask with all our love for him
Where the mountains slope to the westward

*Who is the angel that cometh? Life!

Why shouldst thou fear the beautiful angel Death?
*Wilt thou not ope thy heart to know?
*Within this lowly grave a conqueror lies

*Within the maddening maze of things
