  1. THE EMPTY CHAIR We gather here, a class once more To reminiscence, like years before Upon the days and joys we knew Before our school-aged time was through Yet, as we meet, with memories near We think of those, always held dear – Our friends and classmates, passed away To be with God, and enjoy their day. They sit at desks, resting on clouds Surrounded by angelic crowds Where they shall be forevermore The friends and schoolmates we adore They’ll be with us in every prayer Until the day, we join them there Within the walls of Heaven’s class Where friendships formed shall always last. Until that hour, when we join again An empty chair, we will maintain In honor of the life-long bond We forged with those, now passed beyond The friends with whom we learned life’s truth Whose bonds lasted far from our youth And shall remain forever near When we gather, from year to year. – Author unknown
