It was like death to part with my darling. But Jesus was very precious to my soul. Heaven was nearer, Christ was dearer, than ever before. I had one more treasure in glory.
My health had been very poor all through her sickness. Three weeks before her death little Gertie was born. She was the picture of Georgie, and seemed to have her sweet disposition, and I thought as she grew older she would take her place; but the precious bud was not permitted to bloom in this world of sin. At the age of four months, the angels bore her away where the flowers never fade nor die, there to join her sister and brothers, who were waiting to welcome her at the golden gates. I could say with David, they cannot come back to me, but I will go to them. Praise the Lord for the Christian’s hope.
Look to the Lamb of God;
He, to redeeem you, died on Calvary,
Look to the Lamb of God.
Look to the Lamb of God;
For He alone is able to save you,
Look to the Lamb of God.
Look to the Lamb of God;
You in His strength shall over all prevail,
Look to the Lamb of God.
Look to the Lamb of God;
His love will cheer and fill your heart with song,
Look to the Lamb of God.
Look to the Lamb of God;
In joy or sorrow Christ is all in all.—
Look to the Lamb of God.
