Heaven

What is Heaven 1 Not a steep, Frowning o'er the sands of Time, Guarded like a castle's keep, Which the strong can only climb ; 'Tis an ever present bliss, In the soul by God refined ; 'Tis that better world than this, Which the pure in spirit flnd. Where is Heaven 1 Whereso'er Lives a pure and loving heart, Love is all the atmosphere, Where the holy dweil apart. Men and angels mingle there, Whether earth be passed or not - Heaven is here and everywhere, If tlie evil be forgot.
