Thou gleaner of the sunny hours,
Harvested in the home of God,
Gild me the future summer's hours,
Revive the present ice-bound sod!
Harvested in the home of God,
Gild me the future summer's hours,
Revive the present ice-bound sod!
Thou gleaner from the darkest hours
Of scattered good I cannot see,
Preserve thy dear remedial powers,
And shed them, as I need, o'er me!
Of scattered good I cannot see,
Preserve thy dear remedial powers,
And shed them, as I need, o'er me!
