[Parted in the act of blessing]

While He blessed them, He was parted, &c. —xxiv. 51.

Parted in the act of blessing,
Never shall His blessings stop:
Still for us He prays unceasing,
Still His hands are lifted up!
First the Comforter is given
Proof of His continued prayer;
Then He prays us up to heaven,
Blesses us for ever there.
