Has entered. and will there abide.
What joys already she has seen,
What happy valleys robed in green,
What lifted mountains fine and far,
And lakes aglow with morning sheen.
How light she walks, and every place
Wears a familiar, loving face
Fond scenes the traveller once knew.
And longcd her journey to retrace.
What homely voices endless dear
Her hungry soul has lcapcd to hear
What heartsome bits of every day
