A Sunset Lesson

A Sunset Lesson
This evening I saw the sun set
Behind the mountain dim ;
It dropped from behind a beautiful cloud ,
All gold around its rim .
And as the sun sank down to rest ,
Beneath its bed of gold ,
It filled my soul with rapture ,
Its beauty to behold .
O that my life ,at close of day ,
May be as supremely bright ,
As I pass on from this present world
To the realms of endless light ;
That a golden crown may await me there .
As bright as this golden sky ,
And that I may dwelt forever there ,
In that beautiful home on high
