We Never Walk Alone
The time comes when those
Whom we have loved
The Longest and the best
Will travel far ahead
Into a place of joy and rest…
And we must walk a lonely path
Through shadows for a while
Without a certain kindred voice,
A dear, familiar smile-
Yet each day brings us nearer
To horizons yet unknown
And when the way is dark,
We never walk alone,
For memories travel with us
Toward the happy destination
Where we will join our loved ones
In eternal celebration.
