BEAUTIFUL LIGHT
O beautiful light, beautiful light,
O beautiful home of pure delight,
Draped in the lines of perfect thought,
Warmed by the rays of a glowing Heart.

Oh, for the realms of an endless day,
Off from the coils of mouldering clay,
Cooled by the joys of sweet zephyr air,
Bathed in a sparkling white fountain clear.

Illumined by sparks of greatest wit,
Softened by beauty when they're lit.
O glorious home of pure delight,
Where all is perfect within our sight.
