Religion
A Birthday Greeting
From Ministry of Song
Religion
Tis fully known to ONE, by us yet dimly seen,
The blessing thou HAST BEEN ;
Yet speaks the silent love of many a mourning heart
The blessing that thou ART ;
While traced on coming years, in faith and hope we see,
'A blessing thou SHALT BE ;'
Then here in holy labour, there in holier rest,
BLESSING, thou SHALT BE BLESSED.
