At Last Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD AEAE FGFG GHGH IJIJ AKAK| When on my day of life the night is falling | A |
| And in the winds from unsunned spaces blown | B |
| I hear far voices out of darkness calling | A |
| My feet to paths unknown | B |
| - | |
| Thou who hast made my home of life so pleasant | C |
| Leave not its tenant when its walls decay | D |
| O Love Divine O Helper ever present | C |
| Be Thou my strength and stay | D |
| - | |
| Be near me when all else is from me drifting | A |
| Earth sky home's pictures days of shade and shine | E |
| And kindly faces to my own uplifting | A |
| The love which answers mine | E |
| - | |
| I have but Thee my Father let Thy spirit | F |
| Be with me then to comfort and uphold | G |
| No gate of pearl no branch of palm I merit | F |
| Nor street of shining gold | G |
| - | |
| Suffice it if my good and ill unreckoned | G |
| And both forgiven through Thy abounding grace | H |
| I find myself by hands familiar beckoned | G |
| Unto my fitting place | H |
| - | |
| Some humble door among Thy many mansions | I |
| Some sheltering shade where sin and striving cease | J |
| And flows forever through heaven's green expansions | I |
| The river of Thy peace | J |
| - | |
| There from the music round about me stealing | A |
| I fain would learn the new and holy song | K |
| And find at last beneath Thy trees of healing | A |
| The life for which I long | K |
