|---|
|
| 1. | Light after darkness, |
| | Gain after loss, |
| | Strength after weakness, |
| | Crown after cross; |
| | Sweet after bitter, |
| | Hope after fears, |
| | Home after wand'ring, |
| | Praise after tears. |
| 2. | Sheaves after sowing, |
| | Sun after rain, |
| | Sight after mystery, |
| | Peace after pain; |
| | Joy after sorrow, |
| | Calm after blast, |
| | Rest after weariness, |
| | Sweet rest at last. |
| 3. | Near after distant, |
| | Gleam after gloom, |
| | Love after loneliness, |
| | Life after tomb; |
| | After long agony, |
| | Rapture of bliss, |
| | Right was the pathway, |
| | Leading to this. |
