LyicsA little longer still, patience, beloved;
A little longer still, ere heaven unroll
The glory and the brightness and the wonder,
Eternal and divine, that waits thy soul.
A little longer ere life, true, immmortal,
(Not this shadowy life) will be thine own,
And thou shalt stand where winged archangels worship,
And trembling bow before the great white throne.
A little longer still, and heaven awaits thee,
And fills thy spirit with a great delight;
Then our pale joys will seem a dream forgotten,
Our sun a darkness, and our day a night.
