Oh, Blessèd Life!

Oh

bless­èd Life! The heart at rest

When all with­out tu­mul­tu­ous seems

That trusts a high­er will

and deems

That high­er Will

not mine

is best.

O bless­èd Life! The mind that sees

Whatever change the years may bring

A mer­cy still in ev­ery thing

And

shin­ing through all mys­te­ries.

O bless­èd Life! The soul that soars

When sense of mor­tal sight is dim

Beyond the sense

be­yond to Him

Whose love un­locks the heav’n­ly doors.

O bless­èd Life! Heart

mind

and soul

From self-born aims and wish­es free

In all at one with De­ity

And loy­al to the Lord’s con­trol.

O Life

how bless­èd

how di­vine!

High life

the ear­nest of a high­er!

Savior

ful­fill my deep de­sire

And let this bless­èd Life be mine!
