There Is A Reason
For every pain we must bear For every burden, every care
There is a reason. For every grief that bows the head
For every tear drop that is shed There is a reason.
But if we trust God as we should It will all work out for our good
He knows the reason.

** ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS **
The family of Mrs. Elizabeth Alien wishes to thank their friends for their many acts of kindness during this period of bereavement. We would like to pay a special tribute to the staff of St. Joseph Hospice Program and the members of Thankful Baptist Church for their deeds of comfort, support, and kindness.
