"Little Ruby thou are laid to rest,
'Tis hard but God knows best;
Free from sorrow, care and pain,
Its pangs thou shalt never feel again,
But safe in God's bright home above,
Serenely rest in Jesus love.

So Rest, thou loved one; sweetly rest,
Securely housed on Jesus' breast;
'Tis not far, the golden shore,
Where death shall part us never more
Free from all sorrow, toil and care,
Little Ruby, we will meet thee there."
