Gone from our family that smiling face,
The cheerful happy ways,
The heart that won so many friends,
In bygone happy days.
Lonely is the big family without you,
Life to us is not the same,
All the world would be like Heaven,
If we could have you back again.
In dreams ,see her smiling face,
And kiss her tender brow,
But in our aching hearts we know,
We have no 9th sister now.
The voice is now silent, the heart now cold,
The smile and the welcome that met us of old,
We miss her and mourn her in sorrow unseen,
And dwell on the memory of days that have been.
We sat beside your sickbed-side,
Our hearts crushed and sore,
We did our duty to the end,
'Til we could do no more.
In tears we watched you sinking,
We watched you fade away,
And though our hearts were breaking,
We knew you could not stay.
You left behind some aching hearts,
That loved you most sincere,
We never shall and never will,
Forget you, 9th sister dear.
