I	A
	-
The face which duly as the sun	B
Rose up for me with life begun	B
To mark all bright hours of the day	C
With hourly love is dimmed away	C
And yet my days go on go on	D
	-
II	A
	-
The tongue which like a stream could run	B
Smooth music from the roughest stone	E
And every morning with ' Good day'	C
Make each day good is hushed away	C
And yet my days go on go on	D
	-
III	A
	-
The heart which like a staff was one	B
For mine to lean and rest upon	D
The strongest on the longest day	C
With steadfast love is caught away	C
And yet my days go on go on	D
	-
IV	-
	-
And cold before my summer's done	B
And deaf in Nature's general tune	F
And fallen too low for special fear	G
And here with hope no longer here	H
While the tears drop my days go on	D
	-
V	-
	-
The world goes whispering to its own	E
This anguish pierces to the bone	E
And tender friends go sighing round	C
What love can ever cure this wound '	-
My days go on my days go on	D
	-
VI	-
	-
The past rolls forward on the sun	B
And makes all night O dreams begun	B
Not to be ended Ended bliss	I
And life that will not end in this	I
My days go on my days go on	D
	-
VII	-
	-
Breath freezes on my lips to moan	E
As one alone once not alone	E
I sit and knock at Nature's door	J
Heart bare heart hungry very poor	K
Whose desolated days go on	D
	-
VIII	-
	-
I knock and cry Undone undone	B
Is there no help no comfort none	B
No gleaning in the wide wheat plains	L
Where others drive their loaded wains	L
My vacant days go on go on	D
	-
IX	L
	-
This Nature though the snows be down	M
Thinks kindly of the bird of June	F
The little red hip on the tree	-
Is ripe for such What is for me	-
Whose days so winterly go on	D
	-
X	L
	-
No bird am I to sing in June	F
And dare not ask an equal boon	F
Good nests and berries red are Nature's	L
To give away to better creatures	L
And yet my days go on go on	D
	-
XI	-
	-
I ask less kindness to be done	B
Only to loose these pilgrim shoon	B
Too early worn and grimed with sweet	C
Cool deadly touch to these tired feet	C
Till days go out which now go on	B
	-
XII	-
	-
Only to lift the turf unmown	B
From off the earth where it has grown	B
Some cubit space and say Behold	C
Creep in poor Heart beneath that fold	C
Forgetting how the days go on	B
	-
	-
XIII	-
	-
What harm would that do Green anon	B
The sward would quicken overshone	B
By skies as blue and crickets might	C
Have leave to chirp there day and night	C
While my new rest went on went on	B
	-
XIV	-
	-
From gracious Nature have I won	B
Such liberal bounty may I run	B
So lizard like within her side	C
And there be safe who now am tried	C
By days that painfully go on	B
	-
XV	-
	-
A Voice reproves me thereupon	B
More sweet than Nature's when the drone	B
Of bees is sweetest and more deep	N
Than when the rivers overleap	N
The shuddering pines and thunder on	B
	-
XVI	-
	-
God's Voice not Nature's Night and noon	B
He sits upon the great white throne	B
And listens for the creatures' praise	-
What babble we of days and days	-
The Day spring He whose days go on	B
	-
XVII	-
	-
He reigns above He reigns alone	B
Systems burn out and have his throne	B
Fair mists of seraphs melt and fall	O
Around Him changeless amid all	O
Ancient of Days whose days go on	B
	-
XVIII	-
	-
He reigns below He reigns alone	B
And having life in love forgone	B
Beneath the crown of sovran thorns	-
He reigns the Jealous God Who mourns	-
Or rules with Him while days go on	B
	-
XIX	-
	-
By anguish which made pale the sun	B
I hear Him charge his saints that none	B
Among his creatures anywhere	P
Blaspheme against Him with despair	P
However darkly days go on	B
	-
XX	-
	-
Take from my head the thorn wreath brown	B
No mortal grief deserves that crown	B
O supreme Love chief misery	-
The sharp regalia are for Thee	-
Whose days eternally go on	B
	-
XXI	-
	-
For us whatever's undergone	B
Thou knowest willest what is done	B
Grief may be joy misunderstood	C
Only the Good discerns the good	C
I trust Thee while my days go on	B
	-
XXII	-
	-
Whatever's lost it first was won	B
We will not struggle nor impugn	B
Perhaps the cup was broken here	H
That Heaven's new wine might show more clear	G
I praise Thee while my days go on	B
	-
XXIII	-
	-
I praise Thee while my days go on	B
I love Thee while my days go on	B
Through dark and dearth through fire and frost	C
With emptied arms and treasure lost	C
I thank Thee while my days go on	B
	-
XXIV	-
	-
And having in thy life depth thrown	B
Being and suffering which are one	B
As a child drops his pebble small	O
Down some deep well and hears it fall	O
Smiling so I THY DAYS GO ON	B
