We pass these sleep | C |
Beneath the shade where deep leaved boughs | D |
Bend o'er the furrows the Great Reaper ploughs | D |
And gentle summer winds in many sweep | C |
Whirl in eddying waves | E |
The dead leaves o'er the graves | E |
- | |
And the living sigh | F |
Forgotten ones so soon your memories die | F |
Ye never more may list the wild bird's song | G |
Or mingle in the crowded city throng | G |
Ye must ever dwell in gloom | H |
'Mid the silence of the tomb | H |
- | |
And the dead reply | F |
God giveth us His life Ye die | F |
Your barren lives are tilled with tears | I |
For glory ye are clad with fears | J |
Oh living ones oh earthly shades | K |
We live your beauty clouds and fades | K |
