i And nizht is gathering fast,
T strain my t arless eyes
l - 'To pierce the thickening gloom,
1 And, mid the shadows, seem to rise
| A vision of the tomb.
' An is this all—is ihere
Beyond lifes troubled wave -
! No healing balm for broken hearts.
! No hope beyond the grave?
) No heaven of repose,
1 No bright abode of rest,
| No land of promise for the soul
' By earthly cares oppressed ?
Oh, yes; poor, fainting heart,
By stormy billows tossed,
There is a better world than this
Whose years are never lost.
Believe in Him who bade
The raging tempest cease,
And while eternal ages roll
Thou shalt abide in peace.
