Thy Name will I remember in my praise
And call to mind Thy faithfulness of old,
Though as a weaver Thou cut off my days
And end me as a tale ends that is told.
And call to mind Thy faithfulness of old,
Though as a weaver Thou cut off my days
And end me as a tale ends that is told.

A DIALOGUE.
"OH happy happy land!
Angels like rushes stand
About the wells of light."—
"Alas, I have not eyes for this fair sight:
Hold fast my hand."—
Angels like rushes stand
About the wells of light."—
"Alas, I have not eyes for this fair sight:
Hold fast my hand."—
"As in a soft wind, they
Bend all one blessed way,
Each bowed in his own glory, star with star."—
"I cannot see so far,
Here shadows are."—
Bend all one blessed way,
Each bowed in his own glory, star with star."—
"I cannot see so far,
Here shadows are."—
"White-winged the cherubim,
Yet whiter seraphim,
Glow white with intense fire of love,"—
"Mine eyes are dim:
I look in vain above,
And miss their hymn."—
Yet whiter seraphim,
Glow white with intense fire of love,"—

I look in vain above,
And miss their hymn."—
