Our mighty leader from the realm of death,
When in my quiet hours, I do sink down
Into my soul’s deep places, and arouse
Strength to abide awhile in spirit-lands.
Then may I feel the master’s presence near
And hear his words, as in the life of sense
I often heard them. Never doth he speak
About our work as drawing to a close;
But only of fulfilment of our aims
In later days that are to come on earth.
