In Memoriam
Dearest mother, thou hast left us, Our mother is gone and we are left
Here thy loss we deeply feel; The loss of her to mourn;
But ‘tis God that hath bereft us, But may we hope to meet again,
He can all our sorrows heal. With Christ before His throne
Farewell dear children, shed no tears,
For you I’ve cared many years;
I always strove to do my best,
But now I’m gone to take my rest.
In Affectionate Remembrance of
Sarah
THE BELOVED WIFE OF ROBERT BENNETT OF NEWTOWN
Who departed this life December 27th, 1881 In her 71st year of her age
And was Interred at the Wesleyan Chapel, New Mills, DECEMBER 31st.
With the respects of the family

Short was thy stay with us below
On earth no plant so sweet can grow
We asked thy stay but ‘twas denied
Though nursed so well yet still thou died
We miss thee when the morning dawns
We miss thee when the night returns
We miss thee here, we miss thee there
My child, we miss thee everywhere.

IN MEMORIAM
SAFE in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on His gentle breast,
There, by His love o’ershaded,
Sweetly my soul shall rest.
Hark! ‘tis the voice of angels,
Borne in a song to me,
Over the fields of glory,
Over the jasper sea.
