Alison

I've seen the light in many eyes grow dim

I've watched my cup spill over its brim

I've seen the pain in young beggar's eyes

But I won't be seein' hers again soon

Now, God put Job to the test

And I'm glad to say that Job's now at rest

But I wish his faith lived on with us still

And could comfort us

Oh, Allison, you have left us all bitterly alone

As we stand up and face the truth

That our strength was derived from you
