Gracefully
Of endless love, a beauty of great renown,
Of treasures mightyer than a regal crown
Fragrance spray of sweet nectar's love
You’re God’s gift from heaven above
In silence embraced by a spirit kindred to my own,
Henceforth no longer to walk alone
For 'tis thy love that defines my worth
‘Twill not vanish like time on earth
Though my youthful years have dwindled down
‘Tis an everlasting love I've truly found
O’ most radiant essence from heaven above
Descended like a God's pure love
To obtain a great and gracious noble life
Hence to endure this mortal strife
Now meekly search your lovely face
In memory of sweet and tender grace
A virtuous offer mercy to extend
Where light and knowledge will attend
O’ of slumbers gentle peaceful rest
Unquestioned welcome and truly blessed
‘Tis from God’s kind and gentle grace
We hope to once again behold your face
