A HOME IN HEAVEN.

By Mary E. Guilford

A HOME in Heaven! how it gladdens my heart, To think of that realm where no sorrows invade. Where storms never come, nor friends never part, Nor joys, nor beauty, nor loveliness fade.
A home in Heaven! how cheering the thought, To meet there our friends who now sleep in the tomb; A glorious change in our being wrought, Mortality changed to immortal bloom.
A home in Heaven! where sweet anthems of praise, Will flow from our lips in unceasing strains; Bright angels of glory their voices raise, To join with us in the glad refrain.
A home in Heaven! with Christ our king! There to faultless bow at the heavenly throne! O haste the glad day, when with joy we'll bring Our tributes of praise to its peaceful dome.
MARY E. GUILFORD.
