To the God we have worshipped together,

Remember thy far-distant friend.

We miss the calm light of thy spirit,

We miss thy encouraging smile;

But we bless the unslumbering Shepherd

Who sent thee to cheer us awhile.

The light, which burned brightly among us,

We rejoiced for a season to see,

For the God we have worshipped together

Gave a halo of glory to thee.
