Words of Solace for Mary Lou
Life, like a mist, appears for just a day
then disappears tomorrow.
All that we are can quickly fade away,
replaced with tears and sorrow.
If a man should die, can he live again?
Hear the promise God has made,
Friends of our God,
though they may pass away
will never be forsaken.
All those asleep in God's memory stay,
from death he will awaken.
Then we'll come to see,
all that life can be,
Paradise eternal.
He will call, the dead will answer,
they shall live at his command.
For He will have a longing,
for the work of his own hand.
So have faith and do not wonder,
for our God can make us stand.
And we shall live forever,
As the work of his own hand.
