| O friends I cannot comfort but will share with you your grieving | B |
| In the valley of the shadow where you sit in helpless tears | C |
| Greater is the parting anguish than the joy of first receiving | B |
| The sweet gift that was your treasure through five happy golden years | D |
| - | |
| When I laid within your arms the dear babe that God had given | E |
| There was hidden in the future all the tears that you must weep | F |
| Ah the little ones so tangled in our heart strings they are riven | E |
| In the parting are but treasures lent not given us to keep | F |
| - | |
| There's silence in the places her voice filled with happy laughter | G |
| Stillness waiting for the echo of the patter of her feet | H |
| You are gazing on her picture and your heart is longing after | G |
| The tender touch of the little hands the mouth that was most sweet | H |
| - | |
| In the valley of the shadow where by God's will you are sitting | B |
| Earthly sounds shut out and stilled yea and heaven so very near | I |
| That the little golden head through the open doorway flitting | B |
| Might come smiling any moment and be greeted without fear | I |
| - | |
| With earthly toil and serving we will not get encumbered | J |
| Our hearts rise to our treasures that are laid up with the King | B |
| There your little maiden Maud with His jewels fair are numbered | J |
| There she learns the songs of gladness that the heavenly children sing | B |
| - | |
| Among those pure and precious who have known no earthly sinning | B |
| The Beloved's fair white lilies in the Paradise of God | K |
| Those He looked upon and loved when their lives were but beginning | B |
| And brought home before their tender feet grew weary of the road | L |
| - | |
| There clothed on with his beauty round the child all bliss will gather | G |
| All the brightness of the Father's face when looking on His own | M |
| For the little children's angels see the bright face of the Father | G |
| And gather on the rainbow steps that are around the throne | M |
| - | |
| For evermore in safety by the Lamb led to the valleys | N |
| Where the light of God is brooding and life's storms are ever furled | L |
| No more watching no more praying no more guarding from the malice | O |
| Of all evil lest her garments should be spotted by the world | L |
| - | |
| Heaven draws nearer in our sorrow and the earth born cares keep silence | P |
| And the still small voice says kindly Though the child may come no more | Q |
| Time is passing and the moment approaches from the distance | P |
| When the message to come after will appear within the door | Q |
| - | |
| Oh well it is for baby safe and past all toil and grieving | B |
| The dear head is laid so early on a loving Saviour's breast | L |
| Be not faithless oh my friends but submissive and believing | B |
| The Hand that makes no blunders hath laid the babe at rest | L |
