Oh, when the room grew slowly dim
And life's last oil was nearly sent,
We could hear the angels singing
As our dear old mother went.
Something beautiful has vanished,
And we sight for her in vain;
We behold her everywhere,
On the porch, and in the chair,
But she never comes again.
We are so lonely mother,
Since your voice we loved is stilled
But we shall meet you, oh dear mother,
In the land of the Great Beyond
Where there is no parting ever,
And our tears and griefs are gone.
