Only a few more years	A
Weary years	A
Only a few more tears	B
Bitter tears	B
And then and then like other men	C
I cease to wander cease to weep	D
Dim shadows o'er my way shall creep	D
And out of the day and into the night	E
Into the dark and out of the bright	E
I go and Death shall veil my face	F
The feet of the years shall fast efface	F
My very name and every trace	F
I leave on earth for the stern years tread	G
Tread out the names of the gone and dead	G
And then ah then like other men	C
I close my eyes and go to sleep	D
Only a few one hour shall weep	D
Ah me the grave is dark and deep	D
	-
Alas Alas	H
How soon we pass	H
And ah we go	I
So far away	J
When go we must	K
From the light of Life and the heat of strife	L
To the peace of Death and the cold still dust	K
We go we go we may not stay	J
We travel the lone dark dreary way	J
Out of the day and into the night	E
Into the darkness out of the bright	E
And then ah then like other men	C
We close our eyes and go to sleep	D
We hush our hearts and go to sleep	D
Only a few one hour shall weep	D
Ah me the grave is lone and deep	D
	-
I saw a flower at morn so fair	M
I passed at eve it was not there	M
I saw a sunbeam golden bright	E
I saw a cloud the sunbeam's shroud	N
And I saw night	E
Digging the grave of day	J
And day took off her golden crown	O
And flung it sorrowfully down	O
Ah day the Sun's fair bride	P
At twilight moaned and died	P
And so alas like day we pass	H
At morn we smile	Q
At eve we weep	D
At morn we wake	R
In night we sleep	D
We close our eyes and go to sleep	D
Ah me the grave is still and deep	D
	-
But God is sweet	S
My mother told me so	I
When I knelt at her feet	S
Long so long ago	I
She clasped my hands in hers	T
Ah me that memory stirs	T
My soul's profoundest deep	D
No wonder that I weep	D
She clasped my hands and smiled	U
Ah then I was a child	U
I knew not harm	V
My mother's arm	V
Was flung around me and I felt	W
That when I knelt	W
To listen to my mother's prayer	M
God was with my mother there	M
	-
Yea God is sweet	S
She told me so	I
She never told me wrong	X
And through my years of woe	I
Her whispers soft and sad and low	I
And sweet as Angel's song	X
Have floated like a dream	Y
	-
And ah to night I seem	Y
A very child in my old old place	F
Beneath my mother's blessed face	F
And through each sweet remembered word	Z
This sweetest undertone is heard	Z
My child my child our God is sweet	S
In Life in Death kneel at his feet	S
Sweet in gladness sweet in gloom	A2
Sweeter still beside the tomb	A2
Why should I wail Why ought I weep	D
The grave it is not dark and deep	D
Why should I sigh Why ought I moan	B2
The grave it is not still and lone	B2
Our God is sweet our grave is sweet	S
We lie there sleeping at His feet	S
Where the wicked shall from troubling cease	C2
And weary hearts shall rest in peace	C2
