IN MEMORY OF LITTLE VIR
GINIA ELIZABETH NORTHCUTT
On Tuesday, January 13, 1920 as
the day was fading into night, and
we were praying against God’s will,
that he would spare and restore our
darling Virginia to us, her sweet'
spirit was called into the great be
yond. Little Virginia is not dead,
she is only sleeping in the arms of
Jesus, waiting for the judgment day.
She will have nothing to answer for,
because she has never broken God’s
laws.
When we have been judged, we,
who have lived for Jesus can spend
eternity with her. How great it is
to know we shall live with Jesus and
our loved ones forever. Y’es, our dar
ling is gone but not forgotten.
She will live in our hearts as long
as we are on this earth. Our “dar
ling little Virginia” how we miss her.
We see her playthings every day,
and in our minds we can see her ev
erywhere, and look at her little pic- ;
tures and almost listen for her to •
speak. But her sweet little voice is j
silent, we can hear it no more in this I
world, but will in Heaven where all |
is happiness and joy.
Hearts that have never known sor
row and sadness are crushed with
grief. But by the grace of God wc
will meet her again. Then we will
never be parted.
Out in the silent city,
Where many loved ones sleep,
Out where the moonbeams glitter,
On stones by grassy heaps.
Where song birds sing in gladness
From the cool and shady bowers,
Where southwinds sign in sadness,
And dark clouds weep in showers.
There little Virginia is sleeping,
The sleep of the silent blest,
While God her soul is keeping
In the home of endless rest.
