Brother Barrick had a granddaughter named Katlin who unexpectedly died when she was 4 years old. I got Brother Barrick to give me a copy of the poem, The day after I heard this poem, on August 29th, 2016, I wrote this song on my i-Pad. “This lonely heart now bids me speak, Of my poor Emma Jane, She died in tender infancy, Though from exceeding pain.” Grandma Nelson’s first name was Emma. I was very close to Grandma Nelson when I was growing up (see Song 374 \u2013 To Me, My Farm Is<\/a>). The poem was obviously already tearing at my heart strings. We had heard Michael and Amy Barrick talk about their ongoing pain from losing their daughter Katlin. Because of this I knew Craig Barrick’s pain. “A reflection across the ages, Of a grandfather’s<\/u> pain, Innocence rages, Like thunderstorms and rain” (see Song 078 – Rain<\/a>). As I read the words, I can feel the pain of baby Emma Jane who lay in severest agony for five weeks. “A grandmother’s<\/u> pain.” Only 15 months and “She just began to lisp the words, Her tender parents taught,” “A parent’s<\/u> pain.” Even her “young and thoughtless” brother found “a brother’s<\/u> pain.” “To her father she reached her little hands, With countenance so mild,” “a father’s<\/u> pain.” Imagine “Them tender arms around my neck, O’ how can I forget,” “a mother’s<\/u> pain.” Seeing death draw nigh describes “a sister’s<\/u> pain.” “In the cold grave her body was laid, Her spirit gone to heaven, Trust we all will meet her there, When the clouds of life are risen, A reflection across the ages, Of a grandfather’s<\/u> pain.” There is so much we can learn from words of the heart written about someone only 15 months old, like Emma Jane.<\/p>\n
