Borne him conpanyl And then the answer comes
Waiting and watehingl thon hast been for him
Now. free from anxious thought, he waits ior thee
lie waits IN bliss
Now more endearing than before, he waits and soon
This waiting shall he over.
Thou shalt he summoned
To that world that world Of bliss,
And then together Worship
Pnrting's DER;
The things of earth, with all their cares
with all their hopes, and all their fears
Shall pass away. Thy patient waiting
Is now fulfilled. Thy watching ended,
Being lost in perfect sight. ~ IT. g..
