WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM,

We shall be like Him! Oh! beautiful thought, Well may our souls unto rapture be wrought; After the sorrow, the woe, and the tears, We shall be like Him when Jesus appears.
After the conflict, in peace to sit down, After the cross, to be wreathed with a crown, After the dust and the toil of the way, With him, and like him, forever to stay.
Never again shall the throbbing head ache, Never again shall the beating heart break; Never the task drop from wearying hands, Nor the feet ever fall in the brightest of lands.
Never shall sin, with the trail of its shame, Shadow love's sunlight, or chill its clear flame; Saviour, oft grieved in the house of thy friends, We will not wound thee, when life's journey ends.
