He is pone but not forgotten.
By those of is e let behind:
Alwavs will h be remembered.
Because he was patient, true an

Altho we do not know God's reason
For taUinK him In the prime of
life:
We know that he is beyond the rier
Away, from this world's grief and
strife.
One by one we must needs follow,
Down the valley one by one;
Perhaps for some before the morrow.
Will come the setting of the sun.
If we as our brothers know the Mas

We shall meet again across the Jor

And enjoy with him those bless

Oh Master, help us do Thy bidding!
So that upon the golden strann"
When this sun sinks behind this
world's horizon,
We may with Harvey triumphant
