“Is it well with the child?”
Lying a-dying.Have done with vain sighing:
Life not lost but treasured,
God Almighty pleasured,
God's daughter fetched and carried,
Christ's bride betrothed and married.
Our tender little dove
Meek-eyed and simple,
293
There shall she walk in white,
Where God shall be the Light,
And God the Temple.
