A. E. M.
EACH passing moment claiming
The grace and strength we need,
We would be always naming
The name we love to plead.
2
His holy life forthshowing
Along our upward way;
His image in us growing
More life-like day by day.
3
Our very faces beaming
Doxologies unsung;
Our ransomed natures seeming
To heavenly music strung.
4
Forever o’er us streaming
The light of Jesus’ love,
In the fair distance gleaming
The pearly gates above.
5
Then in the kingdom bending
Before our Saviour’s feet,
Life’s dark enigmas ending
In hallelujahs sweet.
6
No trembling notes of sadness:
The rest of faith becomes
A rest in love and gladness,
Eternal glory won.
