Put by her glasses and rocker, She will not need them again. Into Heaven's mansions she's entered, Never to sigh or weep. After long years with life's struggles, Mother has fallen asleep. Near other loved ones we laid her, Low in the ground to li e. And though our hearts are broken, Yet we would question why. She does not rest 'neath the grasses, Though o'er her dear grave they creep. She has gone into the kingdom; Mother has fallen asleep. Rest the tired feet now forever, Dear wrinkled hands are so still. Blast of the earth shall no longer, Throw o'er our loved one a chill. Angels though heaven will guide her; Jesus will still bless and guide her. Mother has fallen asleep. Beautiful rest for the weary, Well deserved for the true, When our life's journey is ended, We shall all be with you. This helps to quiet our weeping, Hark Angel music so sweet. He giveth to his Beloved, Beautiful, Beautiful Sleep. Author Unknown
