|
|
<p>For those we love within the veil,<br>
|
|
Who once were comrades of our way,<br>
|
|
We thank Thee, Lord; for they have won<br>
|
|
To cloudless day.</p>
|
|
<p>And life for them is life indeed,<br>
|
|
The splendid goal of earth’s strait race;<br>
|
|
And where no shadows intervene<br>
|
|
They see Thy face.</p>
|
|
<p>Not as we knew them any more,<br>
|
|
Toil worn, and sad with burdened care:<br>
|
|
Erect, clear eyed, upon their brows<br>
|
|
Thy Name they bear.</p>
|
|
<p>Free from the fret of mortal years,<br>
|
|
And knowing now Thy perfect will,<br>
|
|
With quickened sense and heightened joy,<br>
|
|
They serve Thee still.</p>
|
|
<p>O fuller, sweeter is that life,<br>
|
|
And larger, ampler is the air:<br>
|
|
Eye cannot see nor heart conceive<br>
|
|
The glory there;</p>
|
|
<p>Nor know to what high purpose Thou<br>
|
|
Dost yet employ their ripened powers,<br>
|
|
Nor how at Thy behest they touch<br>
|
|
This life of ours.</p>
|
|
<p>There are no tears within their eyes;<br>
|
|
With love they keep perpetual tryst;<br>
|
|
And praise and work and rest are one<br>
|
|
With Thee, O Christ.</p>
