One sweetly solemn thought
Comes TO me Ger and Ger;
I IN nearer Iny home to-day
Than ever have been before;
Nearer my Fathers house.
Where the many mansions be;
Nearer the great white throne,
Nearer the crystal sea;
Nearer the bound Of life,
Where we lay our burdens dowl
Nearer leaving the cross.
Nearer gaining the crown.
But the waves Of that silent sea
Roll dark before my sight,
That brightly the other sido
Break on q shore OF ight.
OFF my mortal feet
Have almost gained the brink,
II IL be am nearer home
Even to-day than think,
Father. perfect nay trust,
Let nv spirit feel in death
That her feet are firmly set
On the Rock OF living faith.
