I PRAYED SO EAGERLY
I prayed so eagerly,
“Turn and see
How bitter I have striven—
A word and all forgiven.”
I prayed so eagerly.
“Turn and see
How bitter I have striven—
A word and all forgiven.”
I prayed so eagerly.
I prayed so eagerly—
Not to be;
You turned and passed. Goodbye!
Fates smile for me, dreamed I—
Yet I prayed eagerly.
Not to be;
You turned and passed. Goodbye!
Fates smile for me, dreamed I—
Yet I prayed eagerly.
