"One by one our friends are called from earth by life,
And they journey by our side no more.
One by one they cross the solemn river,
Going over on the other shore.
One by one familiar tones grow silent,
One by one dear forms are hid from sight,
But as far, beyond the chilling shadows,
Those we cherished dwell in Heaven's light.
One by one sweet voices swell the anthem,
Ringing thru the city built on high,
One by one glad souls gain life eternal
In that home where none shall ever die. CABE
