               Peaceful be thy silent slumber, Peaceful in the grave so low;
               Thou no more wilt join our number; Thou no more our songs shall know.
               Yet, again, we hope to meet thee, When the day of Life is fled;
               Then in Heaven we wish to greet thee Where no farewell tear is shed.
