The parting hour alas how soon,
It comes ere life seems well begun,
My busy heart and hand still find,
So many things, they would had done.
God calls!
I lay the burden down,
And hasten to the beckoning crown.
Dear partner of my wedded life,
Companion of my joy and tears,
Farewell I leave our little flock,
To God and thee for coming years,
For them my life was gladly spent.
On them my dying look is bent,
Poor darlings! how I fain would clasp,
You to my yearning breast so warm,
And hasten to our Heavenly Home,
Away, away from sin and harm.
Farewell, weep not, be good and true!
A mother's love will watch o'er you.
Before our heavenly Father's throne,
My prayers shall rise by day and night,
That he may keep you in his love,
And guide your faltering steps aright.
Be not afraid! his loving hand,
Is mighty as an iron band,
Your hearts still pure and innocent,
Have not yet tasted bitter care.
Your feet have trod the path of peace,
Mid bloom of childhood, fancy fair,
Life sterner duties wait you now.
God wills it so!
Be strong and bow.
Bow when the cross seems hard to bear,
Submarine lift your trustful eyes,
Remember that your mother's prayer.
Ascends for you beyond the skies.
Farewell, dear hearts be strong and true.
The crown awaits both me and you.
