Till He Come ! Oh, Let The Words
Linger On The Trembling Chords ;
Let The Little While Between
In Their Golden Light Be Seen
Let Us Think How Heaven And Home
Lie Beyond That Till He Come !

When The Weary Ones We Love
Enter On Their Rest Above
Seems The Earth So Poor And Vast ?
All Our Life-Joy Overcast ?
Hush ! Be Every Murmur Dumb
It Is Only Till He Come !

Clouds And Conflicts Round Us Press ;
Would We Have One Sorrow Less ?
All The Sharpness Of The Cross,
All That Tells The World Is Loss
Death, And Darkness, And The Tomb
Only Whisper Till He Come !

See, The Feast Of Love Is Spread,
Drink The Wine And Break The Bread
Sweet Memorials Till The Lord
Call Us Round His Heavenly Board ;
Some From Earth, From Glory Some,
Severed Only Till He Come !
