Some day in SpringA
When earth is fair and gladB
And sweet birds singA
And fewest hearts are sadB
Shall I die thenC
Ah me no matter whenC
I know it will be sweetD
To leave the homes of menC
And rest beneath the sodE
To kneel and kiss Thy feetD
In Thy home O my GodE
-
Some Summer mornF
Of splendors and of songsG
When roses hide the thornF
And smile the spirit's wrongsG
Shall I die thenC
Ah me no matter whenC
I know I will rejoiceH
To leave the haunts of menC
And lie beneath the sodE
To hear Thy tender voiceH
In Thy home O my GodE
-
Some Autumn eveI
When chill clouds drape the skyJ
When bright things grieveI
Because all fair things dieJ
Shall I die thenC
Ah me no matter whenC
I know I shall be gladB
Away from the homes of menC
Adown beneath the sodE
My heart will not be sadB
In Thy home O my GodE
-
Some Wintry dayK
When all skies wear a gloomL
And beauteous MayK
Sleeps in December's tombL
Shall I die thenC
Ah me no matter whenC
My soul shall throb with joyM
To leave the haunts of menC
And sleep beneath the sodE
Ah there is no alloyM
In Thy joys O my GodE
-
Haste death be fleetD
I know it will be sweetD
To rest beneath the sodE
To kneel and kiss Thy feetD
In heaven O my GodE
