A WISH FOR HER
Reading edition
Peace unto thee
Wherever thou art,
Childlike companion,
Friend of my heart.
Joy unto thee
Dear image of God;
Flowers are blowing
Where thou hast trod.
Peace unto thee
And respite from pain;
Whiteness of raiment,
Freedom from stain.
Love unto thee,
Remembrance of Heaven,
Tokens of Jesus
By angels given.
Peace unto thee
Wherever thou art,
Christlike companion
Made for my heart.
