God's finger touched her and she slipped away From earth's dark shadows to a brighter day; God saw the road was getting rough, The hills were hard to climb; He gently closed her weary eyes, And whispered, "Peace be thine." To a beautiful garden this friend has gone, To a land of perfect rest; Though she is gone she still lives on In the garden of memory.
