And now I know just why they call death sleep. When I recall that life with her waa peace. I might have known when life with her should cease The same sweet peace would follow her to sleep. # When mother died no trace lay on her face To show that pain or fear dis turbed her grace,. And then I knew that time had stay ed to bless Her four-score years of Christian ateadfastneae—~ I sensed Its glory In my mother’s face.
