‘Most Blessed For Ever.’
(Though the date of these lines is uncertain, they are chosen as a closing chord to her songs on earth.)
| The prayer of many a day is all fulfilled, Only by full fruition stayed and stilled; You asked for blessing as your Father willed, Now He hath answered: ‘Most blessed for ever!’ | | Lost is the daily light of mutual smile, You therefore sorrow now a little while; But floating down life’s dimmed and lonely aisle Comes the clear music: ‘Most blessed for ever!’ | | From the great anthems of the Crystal Sea, Through the far vistas of Eternity, Grand echoes of the word peal on for thee, Sweetest and fullest: ‘Most blessed for ever.’ | |
