H L Kay of Waurika washer
Of our loved and still remember-
ed friend and school mate Miss
Effie Roberts who has gone to
dwell with Jesus:
She has gone our precious treasure
To that bliiilul spirit land
Gone to dwell with Christ forever
and his holy angel hsnd
Jesus claimed her as his iewel
Now we’ll bear her songs no more
’Till we meet to sing with Jesus
On that fair celestial shore
Tiny feet that traveled lightly
In this weary world of woe
Hence will tread thecourtaof glory
Where are heavenly lights aglow
Yes she has gone to join the angels
Leaving here a vacant chair
But among the treasure left us
Is a tiny lock of hair
How we miss her sadly miss her
Mineral j Nine® her spirit soared awav
But this thought onr hearts will
gladden
We shall meet her again some day
Yes she's dwelling with the Savior
No more cares her soul shall try
In a fairer world up yonder
We shall meet her by and by 1
Our hearts are much saddened
