I SHALL GO TO HIM




Blest hour, when righteous souls shall meet,
Shall meet to part no more;
And with celestial welcome greet
On an immortal shore!


The parent finds his long lost child;
Brothers on brothers gaze:
The tear of resignation mild,
Is changed to joy and praise.


Each tender tie, dissolved with pain,
With endless bliss is crowned:
All that was dead revives again,
All that was lost is found.


Congenial minds, arrayed in light,
High thoughts shall interchange:
Nor cease, with ever new delight,
On wings of love to range.


Their Father marks their generous flame,
And looks complacent own:
The smile that owns their filial claim
Is their Immortal crown.
