The heart of man is like harp
Der which dark spells were thrown
In time of old by magic art,
When magic its stern empire held;
And oft now from its strings will start
A sad, heart-breaking tone.
O grief beyond all other here!
How rich its tones might be,
How rich in harmony and love!
And growing sweeter year BY year,
Might to the spirit home above
vs. Faoat in soft melody.
But now-oh, sound no more heart-harp!
Why give forth tones Of woe?
Why give such sad, heart-breaklng notes,
When angel music fills the air, .s,e.
And every breeze that round US floats
Wakes music soft and low?
Oh. shall these heart-strings never more
-H Sound as of old in tune 3 "-r.
e Is pleasure buta wandering gleam,
Soft glancing from distant shore, t
A moment FER life's troubled stream, 9i
81 And passing soon, too soon!
All though these strings are shattered now,
Though spells ale Ter them thrown,
Yet shall the moment come when they
Shall, as the soft winds oer them blow,
Watt on the zephyr's wing away
For aye an angel-lone
Yea. though these strings are no" agar,
-iis eft shall the moment come
When they shall be IN tune agaln-
/ When th..y shall echo hack aiar.
Not thc sad cantering notes u pam
But notes Of Heaven, OF home.
