Then hushed and awed, with joy so vast...

Then hushed and awed, with joy so vast

It knew no future and no past,

She stood amidst the radiant throng

That came to swell love's welcoming song -

This humble soul from earth's far coast

The centre of the heavenly host.

On earth they see her grave and say:

‘ She lies there till the judgment day;’

Nor dream, so limited their thought,

What miracles by love are wrought.
