Sacred
To the memory of
JOSEPH BASS
Who died 21st May
1871
Aged 71 years
Happy soul, they days are ended
All thy mourning
days below
Go, by angel guards attended
To the sight of Jesus, go!
Waiting to receive they spirit
Lo, the Saviour stands above
Shows the purchase of his merit
Reaches out the arm of love.
