First Line: I miss the dear, loved face so
Last Line: "'tis on the breast of god!"
Subject(s): Mourning; Bereavement
I miss the dear, loved face so,
I falter by the bed,
While bursting heart and throat ask,
"Where now that dear, loved head?"
In leaden grief a moment
I see it 'neath the sod,
Then tears and faith say cry answer
"'Tis on the breast of God!"
