When someone we love is in heaven,
there is a little bit of heaven in our home.

.

A light from our household is gone
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
We have to mourn the loss of one,
We did our best to save;
Beloved on earth, regretted still,
Remembered in the grave.
'Twas hard to part with one so dear,
We little thought the time was near;
Farewell, dear one, your life is past,
Our love for you to the end will last.
