Heavenly Pilgrim Other Poems

Excerpt from The Heavenly Pilgrim, and Other Poems The Heavenly Pilgrim How blessed the peace Which a saint only knows, That over his heart Like a calm river flows, That lights all his path, On mountain or plain, And deepens his joy, And softens his pain! His pilgrimage here Amid sorrows may lie, But the silver of love Doth each cloud glorify. Though poverty comes, And a shelter denies, He cheerfully sings Of his home in the skies! His burden of sin, That so heavily bore, Is cast in the sea And remembered no more. His robes have been washed In the blood of the Lamb, And his heart is aglow With the heavenly flame!
