"Christ has promis'd this"

I read the inscription that was weathered
 by the 150 years that had come and gone
-hard for me to comprehend the faith
 of these lovely folks.
"Why should we mourn our Daughter's loss,
Since death to her is bliss.
She lives again in faith she died,
And Christ has promis'd this."
The gravestones were of a family that lived long ago. ...laid to rest here, five children and the parents,
 that each time they would have left a piece of their heart at this site, yet went forward in faith.

"On mountains high and valleys low
When suffering’s all Your servants know
We’ll share the everlasting hope
His name is Jesus
While joy and mourning have their place
And nothing here is put to waste
Death will die and love remains
His name is Jesus" 
(Greatness of His Glory-Bethel music)
