WITHIN AND WITHOUT.

Aus, aus, hinaus

Out! out, away!

Soul, in this alien house thou hast no stay!

Seek thou thy dwelling in Eternity,

'Tis there shall be

Thy hiding-place, thy nest,

Where nor the world nor self can break thy rest.

Within the heart of God,

There is thy still abode,

There mayst thou dwell at rest and be at home,

Howe'er the body here may toil and roam.
