We mean to Ho it" ^firne Hav so
We mean to slacken this feveri
That is wearing our very souls a1
And grant to our hearts a hush
That is only enough to let them
The footsteps of angels drawing 1
We mean to do it. Oh, never dc
When the burden of daytime bi
We'll sit and muse while the star
As the patriarchs sat in the do
Of their tents with a heavenward j
To watch for angels passing by.
We've seen them afar at high noc
When fiercely the world's hot f
Yet never have bidden them turn
To tarry in converse sweet;
Nor prayed them to hallow the ch
To drink of our wine and break ot
We promise our hearts that when
Of the life work reaches the loi
When the weight that we groan v
We'll welcome such calm repose
As banishes care's disturbing din,
And then?we'll call the artgels i
Inc day that we dreamed of com
When tired of every mocking {
And broken in spirit and shorn of <
We drop at the door of rest,
And wait and watch as the day w
But the angels we meant xb calL s
