Arriving or arrived, for glorious rest!
How many shall we mourn as left behind!
—Horatius Bonar.
LORD, WHAT A CHANGE.
Lord, what a change within us one short hour
Spent in Thy presence will prevail to make—
What heavy burdens from our bosoms take,
What parched grounds refresh, as with a shower!
We kneel, and all around us seems to lower;
We rise, and all, the distant and the near,
