Where the sad, the poor, despairing,
                                        
                                        Are uplifted, cheered, and blest,
                                        
                                        Where in others’ labors sharing,
                                        
                                        We can find our surest rest;
                                        
                                        Where we heed the voice of duty,
                                        
                                        Tread the path that Jesus trod;
                                        
                                        This is Heaven, its peace, its beauty,
                                        
                                        Radiant with the love of God.
