Why Not Mourn

Why Not Mourn?

 

Why not mourn, when our most

Fondly cherished, love ones die?

Oh, who can teach this blighted heart,

Whose brightest hopes have set,

The mystic, strange and subtle art,

Of learning to forget?

 

We can only live and remember, all

The good times we had,

And know that there will continue

To be, times we can’t forget.

 

So, we live with Christ Jesus by

Our side, and think of all the

Things we’ll do, when in that great

Home, that He is preparing

For us, way beyond the blue.
