The will is master now, and every sense
Is under absolute control, and gives
Perfected service to perfected souls.
These two have come into their very own.
They walk by sight; and yet the eye of faith
Sweeps out to future time and distant space
And leads them on and on. They lay their plans
And execute these plans to perfectness.
Eternal Glory-land is their abode,
So beautifully clothed in Nature's best,
And basking in the pleasing smile of God;
No need of light of sun or moon or stars;
The glory of the Father and the Son
Eclipses all such lights of lesser ray.
Although with godlike powers they rule and reign,
Yet are they Father's children, and to Him
All loving honor and obedience give.
And then that Elder Brother who has done
So much for all, He also here abides,--
The Savior of the world and souls of men,
The Lord of lords, the King of all the Earth,
Yet ever-present Comforter and Friend.
IV.
And now they learn the things they could not know
On mortal earth.
