HIDDEN from the darkness of our mortal sight, Hidden in the Paradise of lovely light, Hidden in God's Presence, worshipped face to face, Hidden in the sanctuary of Christ's embrace. Up, O Wills! to track him home among the blest; Up, O Hearts! to know him in the joy of rest; Where no darkness more shall hide him from our sight, Where we shall be love with love, and light with light, Worshiping our God together face to face, Wishless in the sanctuary of Christ's embrace. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE SCHOOL WHERE I STUDIED by YEHUDA AMICHAI REVELATIONS; CIRCA 1948 by NORMAN DUBIE THE NINTH OF AB by JOHN HOLLANDER JERUSALEM (1) by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE JERUSALEM THE GOLDEN: 78.
