Extract from a Sermon Delivered at the Bulfinch-Street Church, Boston, Jan. 9, 1853, the Sunday Following the Interment of the Late Amos Lawrence

by Frederick T. Gray

And, oh! our hearts are wrung with grief,

For he we loved is dead.

Fare thee well—fare thee well!

We around thee weep;

But, oh! we love thee, father, still,

And angels guard thy sleep.

[2. ] "Home Again" was sung in hearing of Mr. Lawrence by the children on his last visit to their school, when he was accompanied by Gen. Franklin Pierce. [(return)]
