One lonely light is burning
IT'S holy love Of thee.

That on the bright lake culver;
see thee in the nists that move
Like spectres DER the streams,
And at midnight deep see thee
In the shadowy world of dreams.
see thee-oh, see thee
In the gentle flowers Of spring,
And in the tint the rainbow wears
Upon its fleetiug wing;
I gee thee in tine sunset hues
That gush along the west,
And see thee in the dew.drop
That gems the roses breast.

In the murmuring of the waves,
And in the soft and twilight gush
vi fountains from lneiT cdVes,

In each sound that wanders by,
In the cadence of the night-bird,
And the winds mysterious sigh.
hear thee-oh, hear thee
In the chime of evening bells,
And in the tone that DER the deep
At solemn twilight swells:
hear thee in the forest-lyres
Swept by the breath Of even,
And in the low, deep spirit.voice
That tells the soul of Heaven.
I love thee-oh, love thee
There 8 naught in the bright bue-skies
No lovely thing of earth Blu, brings
Thy sweet form to my eyes;

A tone 10 my spirit dear,
A breath from natures lip, but gives
Thy voice TO my ravished ear.

Thou art in the darkest hour

Each fibre of my frame,
Like Heavens own lightning, and my hoart
In each throb calls thy name.

And would these words were borne
To thee On every holy breeze
Of eventide and morn;

Were written on the sky,
