Baker, aged 23 years and 5 months. 'Tis sad to see the old and worn Draw their latest breath; More sad to see the young in bloom Sinking in the arms of death. Long she lay on a bed of pain, Long, oh I long did we hope and wait; But she passed away from her sweet home And went to rest through the golden gate. Not a murmur passed her lips, Not a sigh her heart prolonged; Jesus loves me and I love Jesus Was her sweet triumphant song. I have gone to meet my mother, Who has long been at rest; I know that you will miss me, But God's ways are best. Gone from those that love thee fondly, Gone to him who loved thee more; Gone to join with bliss immortal, And with those who've gone before. Yes, thou art gone and heaven's own light Sheds glory round thy pallid brow; The voice that now is hushed on earth Chants sweetest angel music now. A Friend.
