The Shepherd
Beside her cot, with shading hand,
She searched the hills at eventide;
Each scaur and heathery track she scanned
Until her shepherd she descried.
She searched the hills at eventide;
Each scaur and heathery track she scanned
Until her shepherd she descried.
So be it given thee to behold,
My heart, when life's last air grows chill,
Thy Shepherd moving by the fold
At sundown on the heavenly hill.
My heart, when life's last air grows chill,
Thy Shepherd moving by the fold
At sundown on the heavenly hill.
