RIGHT WAS THE PATHWAY LIGHT

Light after darkness,

Gain after loss,

Strength after suffering.

                          Crown after cross                           

Sweet after bitter,

Song after sigh,

Home after wandering,

Praise after cry.

Sheaves after sowing,

Sun after rain,

Sight after mystery,

Peace after pain.

Joy after sorrow,

Calm after blast.

Rest after weariness,

Sweet rest at last.

Near after distant,

Gleam after gloom,

Love after loneliness.

Life after tomb.

After long agony

Rapture of bliss!

Right was the pathway

Leading to this!
