A DAY WILL COME WHEN WE SHALL AGAIN MEET...


Why do you wan ye mortal hearts!
Hush your grievance,
And behold as another dove,
Glides away from the gilded cage
Into the waiting heavens
Where lies the soul's abode.
For who was once bound
To the wretched chair
Now flies free
Youth restored and,
Strengthened with vigor
And immortality.

Hush, hush, this eve
And behold as God
Our mighty Father
The King of all righteous
Gently holds his hand
And brings to rest
Against His bosom
Our most beloved
Whom today we have lost.

Weep! Weep! But do not
In your heart desire
His life to be upon
This wretched world
For rest is upon him
In the hands of God.

But even so,
Our hearts clamour
So on this day
Let unrest heed
And in dawns awakening
Bid his soul a
'See you soon'
For surely a day will come
When we shall again meet
The end is eternity
And death is but a door.

Miss you, Ebi...
