LIII. “THE LORD WATCH BETWEEN ME AND THEE!”
May Love be guardian over heart and heart,
Though none beside us stand!
May love be with us, when we are apart,
And keep hand locked in hand!
Though none beside us stand!
May love be with us, when we are apart,
And keep hand locked in hand!
Though thee I see not, yet thine eyes I see:
They keep me true and strong.
Though me thou see'st not, let the message be
Still with thee of my song.
They keep me true and strong.
Though me thou see'st not, let the message be
Still with thee of my song.
May love keep watch between us!—May his strength
Keep both our spirits true!
Till, storm and thunder past, we reach at length
The sky's eternal blue.
Keep both our spirits true!
Till, storm and thunder past, we reach at length
The sky's eternal blue.
