THE HOMECOMING

The spirit, newly freed from earth,

Is all amazed at the surprise

of her belonging: suddenly

as native to eternity

to see herself, to realize

the heritage that lets her be

at home where all this glory lies.

By naught foretold could she have guessed

such welcome home: the robe, the ring,

music and endless banqueting,

these people hers: this place of rest

known, as of long remembering

herself a child of God and pressed

with warm endearments to His breast.
