Sleep, Beautiful Sleep

By MRS. E. M. PEEBLES

MRS. E. M. PEEBLES
SLEEP, beautiful sleep! Resting the feet, now so tired and so weary Walking life's pathway, often so dreary; Folded the hands in grateful repose; Dreaming of rest when the journey shall close; Sleep, beautiful sleep!
Rest, beautiful rest! Now all forgotten the care and the sorrow; Waiting and hoping a brighter tomorrow; Trusting the Father, who watches above; Sleeping or waking to rest in his love: Rest, beautiful rest!
Morn, beautiful morn! Waking refreshed for the newborn day's duties; Sunshine and gladness to fill earth with beauty; Dewdrops are diamonds, there's gold on the mead; Where love lightens labor, there's joy in the need: Morn, beautiful morn!
Home, beautiful home! Resting at last in the homeland eternal, Where hearts never tire and joys are supernal; Walking with loved ones the streets paved with gold, Gathered all safe in the heavenly fold: Home, beautiful home!
