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,
a Cpfazce ur ty/c/Ufft
Please dont sing sad songs for me,
Forget your grief and fears,
For I am in a perfect place
Away from pain and tears.
Its far away from hunger
and hurt and want and pride,
I have a place in Fleaven,
With the Master at my side.
My life on eath was very good.
As earthly life can go,
but Paradise is so much more
Than anyone can know.
My heart is filled with happiness
and sweet rejoicing too,
To walk with God is perfect peace,
A joy forever new.

Augusta, Ga. 30901
But start out bravely
With a gallant smile;
And for my sake
And for my name
Live on and do
All things the same,
Feed not your lonliness
On empty days,
But fill each waking hour
In useful ways,
Reach out your hand
In comfort and in cheer
And 1 in turn will comfort you
And hold you near;
And never, never
Be afraid to die
For I am waiting for you in the sky!
