THE HOME LIGHT.

By Ripley D. Saunders

The light of home's a wondrous light, So tender in its shining, So soft it follows through the night, Our weary road outlining; Tho lonely and for years we roam, Far from the ones who love us, Yet ever shines the light of home, Like God's grace spread above us.
The light of home's a wondrous light; Through life it follows, seeming, Yet when with age the hair is white, Clear in the front 'tis gleaming. It shines from where our loved ones are— O, this is love's divining!— And through the gates of heaven ajar At last we see it shining!
—Ripley D. Saunders.
