What God Hath Promised
God hath not promised skies always blue, Flower-strewn pathways all our lives through;
God hath not promised sun without rain, Joy without sorrow, peace without pain. But God hath promised strength for the day,
Rest for the labor, light for the way, Grace for the trials, help from above,
Unfailing sympathy, undying love.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The family wishes to express their sincere gratitude for all the many kind expressions of sympathy shown them during their time of bereavement.
May God bless you.
