That was a valiant man of God,
He who died yesterday.
He is one we'll always miss --
For us he lit the way.
He walked the straight path of the Lord;
He strove to do the right.
He served God with all his strength,
His heart, his will, his might.
But though he traveled through the veil,
He is not far beyond,
For he's in heaven, now, with God;
He has his new life donned.
And so, we'll see him, when time ends,
When Zion has returned;
And we shall sing for joy abroad,
When we have new life earned.
