Live By Faith and Not By Feelings
God saw the road was getting rough, The hills so hard to climb;
He gently closed his loving eyes, And whispered "Peace be thine;"
A precious one from us is gone; A voice is hushed and stilled,
A place is vacant in our home,
That never can be filled. Helen Steiner Rice
