The Beautiful Days of Heaven

By L. D. Santee

THEY shall dawn in their wonderful brightness, Those beautiful days of peace, When the heart shall thrill in its lightness, And weariness ever cease. Past and forever all earthly night, And the sorrow that earth has given, And hope illumines with colors bright The beautiful days of heaven.
O days that shall dawn pure and holy, In the beautiful courts above, Where the pure, the meek, and the lowly Shall bask in a Saviour's love; Where pain and weeping come never, And no heart is with anguish riven! O, forever and ever and ever, Are the beautiful days of heaven!
Sweet days, which thrill in their gladness, Like the flush of a thousand springs! There is in thy hours no sadness; But angels thy raptures shall sing, While gloom folds her pinions forever, And crowns to the white-robed are given. O, forever, forever and ever, Are the beautiful days of heaven!
Moline, Ill.
