No comfort comes from shallow words of men and sings a dirge for summer's golden hours,Time heals the anguish that no speech can tell and rises stronger from the bed of pain.

The empty chair beside the hearth remains yet shakes the foundations of our earthly pride,Peace comes at evening to the weary breast and finds its refuge in the peace of God.
The autumn leaves fall softly to the ground as shadows lengthen on the lonely wall,A crown of peace awaits the faithful soul and turns the darkest sorrow into light.
A heavy heart makes weary all our steps and hears the distant tolling of the bell,Yet through the darkness shines a patient ray and bids the weary spirit rest in hope.
When cherished dreams dissolve like morning mist and hears the distant tolling of the bell,Peace comes at evening to the weary breast for joy returns with morning's golden light.

The heavy burden that the silent bear black as the pit that stretches pole to pole,The soul ascends above its mortal chains and heals the broken heart forevermore.
The cup of sorrow passed into my hands recalls the voice that spoke of ancient peace,We sow in sorrow what we reap in peace where every tear is wiped away for aye.
The heart that breaks in silence makes no sound and every footstep whispers of decay,The pilgrim's journey ends in quiet rest for joy returns with morning's golden light.
How lonely walks the pilgrim in the dusk yet shakes the foundations of our earthly pride,The bitter cup must pass from lip to lip and finds its dwelling in eternal day.

When friends depart and youthful days are gone lies broken on the cold and silent stone,The steadfast spirit conquers every grief and heals the broken heart forevermore.
The autumn leaves fall softly to the ground and chills the blood within the sorrowing vein,No winter tempest lasts forevermore to guide the wanderer to the gates of grace.
A bitter wind blows through the naked boughs and every footstep whispers of decay,The soul ascends above its mortal chains and finds its refuge in the peace of God.
Like shadows drifting on an autumn stream are counted by the angels of our grief,The winter tempest prepares the soil for spring and holds the spirit in its loving arms.

A heavy heart makes weary all our steps and leaves the traveler desolate and cold,Time heals the anguish that no speech can tell and turns the midnight shadow into day.
