II.

O Time, dull Time, go faster,
1 have not found my rest,
I am not with my Master,
Unsanctified, unblest!
I roam in sin and error,
In grief and pain I roam,
I mourn, I am in terror,
My heart is not at home.

O patience, restless spirit!
Resist not, nor repine;
My peace thou shalt inherit,
The promises are thine!
If thou with sin and weakness
No more wouldst walk below,
Be patient, and learn meekness,
And thou shalt be let go.
