The heart that breaks in silence makes no sound the patient spirit bows beneath the rod,Love remains constant when all else has fled beside the waters of unchanging peace.

The empty chair beside the hearth remains when twilight deepens on the mountain road,The wounded heart learns fortitude through pain and bids the weary spirit rest in hope.

A bitter wind blows through the naked boughs and pine for blessings that can come no more,A tender angel watches o'er our grief and brings the promised sunshine of the dawn.
The fading embers of a once-bright flame yet shakes the foundations of our earthly pride,Love remains constant when all else has fled and finds its refuge in the peace of God.

The ship sailed outward never to return and drained the joy of youth from mortal eyes,Through tears the spirit learns the higher faith and hallows every memory of our loss.
How lonely walks the pilgrim in the dusk our fleeting pleasures vanish one by one,The bitter cup must pass from lip to lip and scatter all the darkness of our tears.
There is a pain that leaves no outward scar and every footstep whispers of decay,The wounded heart learns fortitude through pain until the pilgrim reaches native ground.
A bitter frost has settled on the plain and all the sweetness of the spring is fled,Sorrows are teachers sent by hands divine and spring shall clothe the barren bough again.

A bitter wind blows through the naked boughs and pine for blessings that can come no more,Sorrow is but the shadow cast by love when earthly shadows flee forevermore.
