(Jife cfe fo r e v e r
There is no night without a dawning, No winter without a spring,
And beyond death's dark horizon Our hearts once more will sing~ For those who leave us for a while
Have only gone away Out o f a restless core worn world
Into a "Brighter Day " Where there will be no partings And time is not counted by years, Where there are no trials or troubles, No worries, no cares and no tears.
