When May I Rest
When May I Rest
Hard upon faded earth
Tombstone rests there
Greatest gems, not her worth
Love we did share
Heaven sent, treasure found
Once her sun shone
Beneath earth she lays bound
Our time now gone
Fallen sky weeps her loss
Rivers her dream
There sailing her white cross
Green grass her stream
Where shall peace now be had
When may I rest
My death, I will be glad
My last request
