Companions of the Way (Evening)Whosoever will lose his life for My sake shall find it.
O H, there is more than ear hath heard. Light of the world, in this Thy word.
Yes, for Thy sake, O God Most High! O Man Most Meek! we too can die— Die to the death which Thou hast slain, Die to the deepest source of pain, And walk, by Love's sustaining store, As seekers of our own no more.
We can hear more than ear hath heard, Life of the world! in this Thy word; And wastes shall break forth into song, As in its power we pass along. For lo! in hidden deep accord, The servant may be like His Lord. And Thy love, our love shining through, May tell the world that Thou art true, Till those who see us see Thee too.
