“Here what the voice of Heav’n proclaim
For all the pious dead
Sweet is the Savior of their name
And soft their sleeping bed
They die in Jesus and are blessed;
How kind their slumbers are.
From sufferings, and from sins released,
And freed from every snare/

Far from this world of toil and strife
They’re present with their Lord;
The labors of their mortal life
End in a large reward”

E.F. and S.A. Rinker

the kingdom prepaired for you from

Saint Matthew 25:34.”
