There are those who went before,
We are they who come after,
They have known the joys of love,
and have heard their children’s laughter.
They have heard the thunder’s crash,
and watched the evening falling.
They have heard our Father’s voice,
and answered to His calling.
They blazed trails for us to walk,
trails, narrow, straight and true.
This they have done for us that,
we may be counted with the few.
Let us live as they have lived
preparing futures way,
for others to follow us,
to our Father’s House, someday.
