There was grief within our household	A
Because of a vacant chair	B
Our mother so loved and precious	C
No longer was sitting there	B
	-
Our hearts grew heavy with sorrow	D
Our eyes with tears were blind	E
And little Jamie was wondering	F
Why we were left behind	E
	-
We had told our little darling	F
Of the land of love and light	G
Of the saints all crowned with glory	H
And enrobed in spotless white	G
	-
We said that our precious mother	I
Had gone to that land so fair	B
To dwell with beautiful angels	J
And to be forever there	B
	-
But the child was sorely puzzled	K
Why dear grandmamma should go	D
To dwell in a stranger city	H
When her children loved her so	D
	-
But again the mystic angel	L
Came with swift and silent tread	M
And our sister Jamie's mother	I
Was enrolled among the dead	M
	-
To us the mystery deepened	N
To Jamie it seemed more clear	O
Grandma he said must be lonesome	P
And mamma has gone to her	I
	-
But the question lies unanswered	Q
In our little Jamie's mind	E
Why she should go to our mother	I
And leave her children behind	E
	-
To dwell in that lovely city	H
From all that was dear to part	R
From children who loved to nestle	L
So closely around her heart	R
	-
Dear child like you we are puzzled	K
With problems that still remain	S
But think in the great hereafter	I
Their meaning will all be plain	S
