'Tis sweet, as year by year we lose
Friends out of sight, in faith to muse
How grows in Paradise our store.

The watchful mother tarries nigh
Though sleep have closed her infant's eye,
For should he wake, and find her gone,
She knows she could not bear his moan.

And help us, this and every day,
To live more nearly as we pray.
