I hear a sweet voice calling

Our little girl had taken sick one evening As she walked home from shcool And then her deathbed soon claimed her It made us so sad and so blue Then she called me close to her bedside And whispered these words soft and low Tell mommy to come to me quickly I want to kiss you both and go (Refrain) I hear a sweet voice calling way up in Heaven on high God has made room for your daughter Oh mommy and daddy dont cry Take care of little brother Tell him I’m gone to rest I know his little heart is broken He’s all that you have left Then she closed eyes forever Never to see us no more Until we meet our darlin On that bright and peaceful shore refrain refrain
