And | am glad and sorry. too;
Glad to be done with toll and strife,
Sorry I've erred so oft i'm life.
Glad from temptation 10 be free,
Sorry il vet Ger cometh me:
Glad | shall soon be clear of sin,
Sorry ii still doth lurk within.
Glad when reach the shining shore.
I'll greet the loved ones gone before:
Sorry the view so strangely dear
Should dimly To NV sight appear.
Glad FOR the hope that cheereth me,
That | shall soon nv Savior see:
/. Sorry dark clouds obscure nv way,
/ And cause me from my Lord to stray.
Glad when see Him face TO face,
| Behold the fulness of His grace,
| Then perfect love and constant JOY
/ Will leave no sorrow TO annoy"
