Because they must, for well they knew,
Both loving her, they must love too.
For love like this I'll always pray;
Such friends as these are friends to stay.
And may such lives be long to love,
To create more—like that above.
"Tis nearer to the Father's home,
With love so sweet:—the Spirit's throne.
Both loving her, they must love too.
For love like this I'll always pray;
Such friends as these are friends to stay.
And may such lives be long to love,
To create more—like that above.
"Tis nearer to the Father's home,
With love so sweet:—the Spirit's throne.
