In the New Earth

By M. E. Yergin

M. E. YERGIN

ALL forever and forever, All the glad, sublime forever, Through the God-lit, sun-lit daytime of that vernal land of spring, Home shall bud and bloom and flourish, Tendrilled loves shall drink and nourish, And through all the rolling ages there shall be no parting sting.

Ceaseless age on ages going, Friendship ever shall be flowing, And the golden cords of love and life shall ne’er untie nor break; ’Neath the vine-tree’s sweet perfume, By the jeweled silver home, Friends and loves shall e’er regather at the fuller feasts they make.

Ancients from the olden ages, From the first creation ages, Ancients from the vales and hills of God’s unnumbered starry spheres, We shall meet at moons together In the endless lovetime weather Where the throne of God creates the light of all of heaven’s years.

Sloping flowered hills of glory, Vales in June-time’s perfumed story, Shall resound and overecho with the greeting courtly hosts Treading light the blossomed land, Winging o’er the jeweled strand, Touching harp and hand, as, singing, homeward seek their planet coasts.

Jesus only, Jesus ever, Through the long, long, long, forever, Is all life’s Desire of Ages in God’s morning-land of spring; And he graces all the places With his love to light the faces Of the gathered radiant beings who adore him while they sing.
