THE LOVING HEART.
Loving heart, still Hope enfolding;
Holy hope the Future holding;
Golden future, still repeating
Promise of eternal meeting;
Still to-morrow's pleasures summing,
Never seen—yet ever coming!
Holy hope the Future holding;
Golden future, still repeating
Promise of eternal meeting;
Still to-morrow's pleasures summing,
Never seen—yet ever coming!
Breaking heart, thy tears concealing,
Sacred tears life's sorrow healing;
Weary life for ever trying
Still to smile, 'mid hourly sighing;
What is that within thee, keeping
All this love 'midst all this weeping?
Sacred tears life's sorrow healing;
Weary life for ever trying
Still to smile, 'mid hourly sighing;
What is that within thee, keeping
All this love 'midst all this weeping?
