1503.
[Jesus to heaven is gone]
He went into a far country for a length of time.
—xx. 9.
Jesus to heaven is gone,
That distant land unknown,
Long He from His vineyard stays,
Doth not in His flesh appear;
Yet in His protecting grace
Every day we find Him here.
That distant land unknown,
Long He from His vineyard stays,
Doth not in His flesh appear;
Yet in His protecting grace
Every day we find Him here.
The slothful worldly throng
Suppose He tarries long;
Life appears an age to them,
Till the' important moment's o'er,
Then they wake out of their dream,
See the Judge, and sleep no more.
