'May God be with them In their afflictions and comfort their hearts in this, their time of seed.

'Tis finished, the conflict is past.
The Heaven born spirit has fled,
Her wish is accomplished at last.
And now she's entombed with the dead.

No slckness, or sorrow, or pain,
Shall ever disquiet her now,
For death to her spirit was gain
Since Christ was her life here below.

Her soul has now taken its flight,
To mansions of glory above,
To mingle with angels ol light
And dwell in the Kingdom of Love.

The coffin, the shroud and the grave,
To her were no objects of dread,
On Him who is mighty to save Her soul
Was with confidence stayed.

Then let us forbear to complain
That she has now gone from our sight,
We soon shall behold her again.
With new and eternal delight.
