Do you know what it is like to have someone you love very much go to be with the Lord? If you are a Christian, you need not sorrow as others do who have no hope.
E’en for the dead,
I will not bind my soul to grief:
Death cannot long divide.
For is it not as though the rose
That climbed the garden wall
Had blossomed on the other side?
Death doth hide
But not divide!
Thou are with Christ, and Christ with us—
In Him united still we are!
