She sleeps in perfect rest, Still as the flowers above her breast; A statue of repose she seems, Unvexed by any earthly dreams; God’s angel, men call Death, hath brought, God’s peace, that passeth human thought. Of care and weariness and pain No haunting memories remain. From night of earth her spirit wakes While the eternal morning breaks. Illness and age have passed away; She finds her sweet,lost youth to-day. She has gone out from the home so dear Made by her presence bright with cheer. Since, as a bride, she came to be Home’s angel of sweet ministry, - To enter Home’s eternal door Whence none go out forevermore. Above her rest we speak her praise- Of the loving heart, the winning ways.
