Dearest father! Thou hast left us,
Thou on earth no more canst roam
But we know that God bereft us
And hast called his spirit home.
Thou has left us sad and lonely
For where …………
There's no thought that cheered our pathway.
Like the thought of coming home.
Fare thee well, oh loving father
We can hear thy dear voice call
That around God's throne in Heaven
Thou will meet us one and all.
