Just when Thou wilt

Just when Thou wilt, O Master, call !
Or at the noon, or evening fall,
Or in the dark, or in the light, —
Just when Thou wilt, it must be right.
Just when Thou wilt, O Saviour, come,
Take me to dwell in Thy bright home !
Or when the snows have crowned my head,
Or ere it hath one silver thread. in.
Just when Thou wilt, O Bridegroom, say,
'Rise up, my love, and come away !
Open to me Thy golden gate
Just when Thou wilt, or soon, or late.

Just when Thou wilt — Thy time is best —
Thou shalt appoint my hour of rest,
Marked by the Sun of perfect love,
Shining unchangeably above.
'Dictated in illness.
Just when Thou wilt ! — no choice for me !
Life is a gift to use for Thee ;
Death is a hushed and glorious tryst,
With Thee, my King, my Saviour, Christ !
