| - | |
| - | |
| The dawn light wakes and brightens to the day | B |
| And the slow sun climbs the far eastern skies | C |
| Then down the western slopes pursues his way | B |
| Till shadows deepen and the twilight dies | C |
| And still I muse and wait and list in vain | D |
| For feet that never never will return | E |
| For loving words I may not hear again | F |
| Howe'er with ear attent I wait and yearn | E |
| - | |
| O love that never wavered never changed | G |
| How shall I miss thee as the years go by | H |
| O tenderest heart that could be estranged | G |
| O fount that age and suffring could not dry | H |
| O guiding hand to earliest thought endeared | I |
| O hand that after clung so long to me | J |
| O patient Father honored loved revered | K |
| How shall I hear life's burden wanting thee | J |
| - | |
| Be still fond heart another Father thine | L |
| Both his and thine still on thee bends His eye | H |
| Thou canst not walk alone for Love Divine | L |
| Unseen yet near each starting tear will dry | H |
| Lean on the strong true breast of Love more deep | M |
| More constant far than earthly love may be | J |
| Who gently soothed his pain and gave him sleep | M |
| And shall enfold uplift and comfort thee | J |
| - | |
| So lay thy burden in His hands and rest | N |
| Thy Lord hath fathomed every earthly woe | O |
| With patient feet Earth's thorniest pathway pressed | N |
| And left the tomb with Heaven's light aglow | O |
| For what them seest not now some other day | B |
| In lands unreached by sorrow's dreary knell | P |
| Thou in His light shalt read and meekly say | B |
| E'en so dear Lord Thou hast done all things well | P |
