WHEN I MUST LEAVE YOU
When I must leave you for a little while,
Please do not grieve and shed wild tears; And hug your sorrow to you through the years,
But start out bravely with a gallant smile;
And for my sake and in my name, Live and do all things the ~arne.
Feed not your loneliness on empty days ,
But fill each waking hour in useful wa,.s; Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer, And I in turn w ill comfort you and hold you near.
And never, never be afraid to die, For I am waiting for you in the sky!

.\lolhr.r's Fnifh, ffnpr, /,nvP She walked in the beauty of Faith, Her eyes set on the goal; Tho' hindrances came, she struggled on A fearless, unconquerable soul. She walked in the beauly of Hope, Better, Brighter days ahead; Tho' dark clouds hovered, when the rain was over She marched on, triumphant, un{raid. She walked in the beauty of Love, Toiling in the heat and the cold; Her life she gave-For God she lived Her worth cannot be measured in gold.
