Love indeed thy strength is mightyA
Thus alone such strife to bearB
Three 'gainst one and never ceasingC
Death and Madness and DespairB
'Tis not my own strength has saved meA
Health and hope and fortitudeD
But for love had long since failed meA
Heart and soul had sunk subduedD
-
Often in my wild impatienceE
I have lost my trust in HeavenF
And my soul has tossed and struggledG
Like a vessel tempest drivenF
-
But the voice of my belovedH
In my ear has seemed to sayI
'O be patient if thou lov'st me '-
And the storm has passed awayI
-
When outworn with weary thinkingC
Sight and thought were waxing dimJ
And my mind began to wanderK
And my brain began to swimJ
-
Then those hands outstretched to save meA
Seemed to call me back againL
Those dark eyes did so implore meA
To resume my reason's reignM
-
That I could not but rememberK
How her hopes were fixed on meA
And with one determined effortN
Rose and shook my spirit freeA
-
When hope leaves my weary spiritO
All the power to hold it goneP
That loved voice so loudly prays meA
'For my sake keep hoping on '-
-
That at once my strength renewingC
Though Despair had crushed me downQ
I can burst his bonds asunderK
And defy his deadliest frownQ
-
When from nights of restless tossingC
Days of gloom and pining careB
Pain and weakness still increasingC
Seem to whisper 'Death is near '-
-
And I almost bid him welcomeR
Knowing he would bring releaseS
Weary of this restless struggleT
Longing to repose in peaceS
-
Then a glance of fond reprovalT
Bids such selfish longings fleeT
And a voice of matchless musicU
Murmurs 'Cherish life for me '-
-
Roused to newborn strength and courageV
Pain and grief I cast awayI
Health and life I keenly followT
Mighty Death is held at bayI
-
Yes my love I will be patientW
Firm and bold my heart shall beT
Fear not though this life is drearyT
I can bear it well for theeT
-
Let our foes still rain upon meT
Cruel wrongs and taunting scornX
'Tis for thee their hate pursues meT
And for thee it shall be borneX
-
