But he has gone where the redeemed are keeping

A festival above.

“The mourners throng the ways and from the steeple

The funeral bells toll slow;

But on the golden streets the holy people

Are passing to and fro.

“And saying as they meet, ‘Rejoice. Another,

Long waited for is come.

The Savior’s heart is glad, a younger Brother

Has reached the Father’s home.’”
