You love the Lord－you cannot see－1
You write Him－every day－
A little note－when you awake－
And further in the Day.
An Ample Letter－How you miss－5
And would delight to see－
But then His House－is but a Step－
And Mine's－in Heaven－You see.
You write Him－every day－
A little note－when you awake－
And further in the Day.
An Ample Letter－How you miss－5
And would delight to see－
But then His House－is but a Step－
And Mine's－in Heaven－You see.
