A SONG FOR TWILIGHT.
Oh! the day was dark and dreary, For clouds swept o'er the sun,The burden of life seemed heavy, And its warfare never done;But I heard a voice at twilight, It whispered in my ear,"Oh, doubting heart, look upward, Dear soul, be of good cheer.Oh, weary heart, look upward, Dear soul, be of good cheer."
And lo! on looking upward The stars lit up the skyLike the lights of an endless city, A city set on high.And my heart forgot its sorrow These heavenly homes to see-Sure in those many mansions Is room for even me,Sure in those many mansions, Is room for thee and me.
