Rev. Allan McLean,

Litchfield, Conn.

A christian warrior is sleeping,
After battle din has ceased,
Sleeping that sleep which knows no waking,
Resting now in perfect peace.
A noble-hearted man is sleeping,
For his life-work all is done;
And the angels now are keeping
Faithful watch around his tomb.
A man of God has ceased from labor,
And his work is fully blest;
Finished his course, with faith and patience—
Entered everlasting rest.
