Has taken you to keep
 Free from all harm.
In His beautiful home
 Nothing more can alarm.

Beautiful sunlight,
 Oh, could you return,
And tell of those beauties
 We so wish to learn;
God's great book is sealed
 Until we depart;
Our records are in heaven,
 May we gain the good part.

Beautiful sunlight,
 As we bid you farewell,
You to go heavenward,
 We earthly to dwell,
Till our mission is ended,
 We call'd up above,
To dwell in our Father's
 Everlasting love.

Beautiful sunlight,
 God wanted a flower;
Has taken you to bloom
 In His heavenly bower;
