IN ANOTHER R00lv1
No, not cold beneath the grasses, Not Closed-walled within the tomb-;--
Rather, in eur Father's Ivlansion, l Living, in another room. :
Living, like the man who loves n1e,
of Like my chil~._. w~th c_h.~.ek.S.. .abloom,
. out . sight' at desk or schoolbook' Busy, in another room.
Shall I doubt my F.a.t:her1s mercy? Shall I think of 1ieath as doom?
Or the :stepping o'er the threshold . . .To a bigger, brighter room?
3hall I blar.ae my Father's wisdom?
Shall I sit enswathed in glooJjO,
. \Vben I know my loves are happy', :
w aiting in another room'?
/John 14: 2
