But though a thousand such oceans Ruthlessly hold us apart Love with his strong arm shall hold them Close ever close to my heart.

And I will follow my children On the swift pinions of prayer, Placing them, trusting them ever Under the dear Savior's care. He, the great Shepherd of Israel, Tenderly guardeth the sheep, And though all others forget us He will not slumber nor sleep.

When I am weary with longing Thinking of them all the day When in the night I am sleeping O, how it rests me to pray! Then I remember the promise Of the bright mansions of love And I rest sweetly while pleading Oh, may we all meet above.

S. A. E.
