Christian Worship Death Of The Young.
Calm on the bosom of thy God,
Young spirit, rest thee now!
E’en while with us thy footsteps trod
His seal was on thy brow.
Dust, to its narrow house beneath!
Soul, to its place on high!
They that have seen thy look in death,
No more may fear to die.
Lone are the paths, and sad the bowers,
Whence thy meek smile is gone;
But O, a brighter home than ours,
In heaven is now thine own.
