1. Is there any consolation in words
For one who's gone, lost without trace?

2. Gabriel was peerless in healing -
Honors for one such as he are a must.

3. He died but his legacy remains
Alive through time, never to rust.

4. With his knowledge, he led the vanguard
Of his people, when healing's art thrust

5. No surprise his time was so brief
Though of illness he showed not a gust.

6. Illness he warded, while wielding its cure,
Yet its charge was too great to combust.

7. No cure exists for the spirit's travails
Our plans thereby shattered, nonplussed.

8. To God is the matter, His judgment supreme
None can oppose what He deems is just.
