When I Must Leave You
When I must leave you for a little while Phase do not grieve and shed wild tears And hug your sorrow to you through the years, But start out bravely with a gallant smile
Andfor my sake and in His name, Live on and do all things the same. Feed not your loneliness on empty days Butjill each waking hour in useful ways. Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer
And I in turn will comfort you and hold you near.
And never, never be afraid to die For I am waitingfor you in the sky.

"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. God hath not promised we shall not know, Toil and temptation, trouble and woe.
He hath not told us we shall not bear Many a burden, many a care.
But God hath promised strength for the day, Rest for the laborer, light for the way Grace far the trials, help from above, Unfailing sympathy, undying love.
"Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises." II Peter 1:4 **********
