Six long weeks, dear brother, I have watched by thy bedside, hoping and trusting that God would not take you from me; but at last He has called thee home to Heaven, where sickness, sorrow, and death are feared no more.
     Dear brothers and sisters, fare thee well,
     For with you I can no longer stay;
     I hear my Saviour sweetly call,
     And I must haste away;
     Around his frail and shattered bark,
     When ocean billows foam,
     His soul amid the storm could sing
     "Praise God, I'm going home."
          (Composed by his sister, Sarah Edwards)
