We who knew them

We who knew them loved them while on this earth they trod
But we know that they are happy in the presence of our God
The bitter tears of broken hearts they have left behind to mourn
Will strive the more to meet them on that bright and glorious morn
When God shall call his dear ones across the great divide,
He will be there to greet them when they reach the other side.
