Text 19

A light is from our household gone,

A voice we loved is stilled,

A place is vacant in our home,

That never can be filled.

 

Lonely is the home without you,

Life to us is not the same;

All the world would be like heaven,

If we could have you back again.

 

May the God of love and mercy,

Care for our loved one who is gone,

And bless with consolation,

Those left to carry on.
