  Come, in the minstrel's lay; [2] When two hearts meet, And true hearts greet, And all is morn and May. [5] Come Thou! and now, anew, To thought and deed Give sober speed, Thy will to know, and do. Stay! till the storms are o'er— [10] The cold blasts done, The reign of heaven begun, And Love, the evermore. Be patient, waiting heart: Light, Love divine [15] Is here, and thine; You therefore cannot part. “The seasons come and go: Love, like the sea, Rolls on with thee,— [20] But knows no ebb and flow. “Faith, hope, and tears, triune, [1] Above the sod Find peace in God, And one eternal noon.” Oh, Thou hast heard my prayer; [5] And I am blest! This is Thy high behest: Thou, here and everywhere. |
