Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CCDE FGFG HIIITime fly with greater speed away | A |
Add feathers to thy wings | B |
Till thy haste in flying brings | B |
That wished for and expected Day | A |
- | |
Comfort's Son we then shall see | C |
Though at first it darkened be | C |
With dangers yet those clouds but gone | D |
Our Day will put his lustre on | E |
- | |
Then though Death's sad night appear | F |
And we in lonely silence rest | G |
Our ravish'd Souls no more shall fear | F |
But with lasting day be blest | G |
- | |
And then no friends can part us more | H |
Nor no new death extend its power | I |
Thus there's nothing can dissever | I |
Hearts which Love hath joined together | I |
