    "We shall be like him" O how rich the promise ;

    What greater could our Fathers love prepare?

    Few are the words, and softly are they spoken,

    But who shall tell the blessings hidden there?

    "We shall be like him"-pure in heart and sinless;

    But his redeeming mercy ends not there;

    Theses bodies like to his shall then be fashioned,

    And we his resurrection glory share .

    "We shall be like him"- raised above all weakness,

    For ever past all weariness and pain;

    E'en death itself shall have no power to reach us

    When with our risen Lord we live and reign.

    So in the hope of bearing his bright image ,

    Rejoicing in his present gift of grace,

    His love shall keep our hearts in patient waiting

    Till we in glorious beauty see his face .



    C.J.Caldicott (1861-1943)
