O happy day, and get far happier hour
When wilt thou come at last?
When fearless to my Fathers love
and power,
Whose promise standeth fast,
My soul I gladly render
For surely will His hand
Lead her with guidance tender
To heaven, her F'atherland.
Glorifed I shall again
! With this shin then be enshrouded,
In this body l shall then
See my God with eyes unclouded,
In this flesh l then shall see
Jesus Christ eternally.
With Mother Gone
With mother gone, what is the home,
But just cheerless place,
Where you may briefly sit you down
To dream CT her sweet face?
There's not room, there's not chair,
There's not cup nor plate,
But offers proof that she's not there;
It's mothers hand they wait.
But you must not shed tears for her,
Because she's happy now,
1t would be selfish, insincere,
To wish her back below.
She's had her share Of grief and pain,
She's had her share of woe;
She's earned the peace and joy divine
That heaven will bestow.
