Sad am I with soulfelt sorrow, Grief will rend my throbbing heart; No joys to me for tbe to-morrow, Night my sorrows will not part. All has fled, my light, my joy, With nay own peerless, darling boy. Smiling face that shone with gladness Ne'er again will smile on me Till I leave this world of sadness, Then that angel face I'll see. All ha« fled, my light, my joy, With my own peerless, darling boy. Father of mercy, I'll not repine, My loss thy gain, which thou di-d'st give.
