We Must Remember
We Must Remember
We may want to go-rest in yon'hills.
SLEEP IN NEARBY COOL SHADE.
For life lost its greatest thrills
AND OUR CARDS ARE ALL PLAYED!
Yet our family loves us dearly still
PRAYS FOR US EACH LIVELONG DAY.
Begs us away from those hills
IN DEEP HOPE THAT WE BUT STAY!
Please, tarry thee with us longer
ENJOY FAMILY AND DEAREST FRIENDS.
Such blessings make us stronger
TRUE LOVE IN ETERNITY NEVER ENDS!
Enjoy newly flowered meadows in Spring
seek out true love- learn to sing!
