They are goiug-only going:
Jesus called them long ago;
All the Wiutry-time they're passing,
Softly as the falling snow.
When the violets in the spriug-time,
Catch the azure Of the sky,
They are carried out to slumber
Sweetly where the violets lie.
They are going only going.
Where with Summer earth is drest
In their cold hands holding roses,
Folded 10 each silent breast
When the Autumn hangs red banners
Out above the harvest sheaves
They are going-only going,
Thick aud fast like falling leaves.
All along the mighty ages.
All adown the solemn time,
They have taken up their homeward
March to that Saviour cline
When the watching. waiting angels
Lead them from the shadows dim,
To the brightness OF His presence
Who has called them unto Him;
They are goiug-ouly going
Out OF pain aud into bliss
Out OF sad aud sinful weakness,
Into perfect holiness.
Snowy browsl no care shall shade them;
Bright eyes tears shall never dim;
Rosy dips no time shall fade them
Jesus called them unto Him.
Little hearts forever stainless,
Little hands as pure as they
Little feet by angels guided,
Never a forbidden way,
They are goinR-only going;
Leaving many a lonely spot;
But tits Jesus who has called them:
Suffer and forbid them not.
