Grief Quote by Robert J. Morgan
““When the day of toil is done, When the race of life is run, Father, grant Thy wearied one Rest forevermore. When the strife of sin is stilled, When the foe within is killed, Be Thy gracious Word fulfilled: Peace forevermore. When the darkness melts away At the breaking of the day, Bid us hail the cheering ray: Light forevermore. When the heart by sorrow tried, Feels at length its throbs subside, Bring us, where all tears are dried, Joy forevermore.””
