HOPE.
Brightly the sun in splendour is shining
O'er the far mountains; the storm rolls away.
Soft is the radiance when grief is declining;—
The sweet, peaceful beaming of hope's happy day!
O'er the far mountains; the storm rolls away.
Soft is the radiance when grief is declining;—
The sweet, peaceful beaming of hope's happy day!
Yes! sorrow may wreck the dear world of our love,
And o'er our heart's treasures its dark mantle throw;
But th' bright rays of promise that beam from above
Will cause the deep anguish to cease in its flow.
And o'er our heart's treasures its dark mantle throw;
But th' bright rays of promise that beam from above
Will cause the deep anguish to cease in its flow.
