When will these eyes be blessed to surely see
     A moments scene uncast to me before
     Lights last flicker yet born to be of thee
     Could but dare to love you all the more

     From far beyond pray hold a tender heart
     That beats forever in your loving care
     In hope that treasured memories are part
     Of love's contentment one could but only share
     
     I will live in truth whilst with one thought
     My life's sure wealth I could no less have seen
     No greater measure with such treasure bought
     Than love touched by God with this hope to glean

     No one dare claim this love before
     Nor shall it be shared for evermore
