No one heard the sweep of coming wings

No one saw the dark "death angel's flight

We only knew one from our midst

 Had for ever passed the mortal sight

He has gone, like a flower cut down in bull bloom

From the sunshine of earth to the shade of the tomb

 

Oh, may our death father

Be a link in the chain

That will bind us together

To meet him again.
