Dry Branch Fire Squad - Our Darling's Gone lyrics

God He sent a loving angel And he called our darling home For he needed another flower To bloom around the shining throne But we know that he is happy Since he left this world below For he saw his home in heaven Just before he had to go He has left our home so lonely Loneliness you could not know But we ask that he watch o'er us And give comfort to our soul He's at rest on a lonely mountain In a deep and narrow gave And we thank our loving savior For the comfort that he gave Now we're here so sad and lonely In this wicked world alone Just a window and poor orphans In our little mountain home
