No .more sorrow will be thine
No more burden will you bear,
No more heartaches will you endure,
Weighted down with endless care,
Rest now
While here on earth you did your best,
A friend to all you tried to be, this day,
No regrets have you,
Rest now
No more will you fret and worry,
About what a day or night,
Begin, you go now to a city where
Gods Holy Angels sing
Rest now.
