A.whas it tells
W. drop the shells
We were go fall of yesterday.
Aud pick NJ more
Upon that shore
But dream Of brighter far away.
And DER tina; tide.
Far out and wide,
The ycaTninss Of our souls 90 stray:
We long t. go,
We do not know
Where il may be, but tar away.
The mighty deep
Dol How ~ creep
L pom the shores where We Gid play;
The very sand
Where We did stand
a moment since. swept far away.
Our D'aymatCs ali,
Beyond our call,
Are passing hence as We soon may.
Unto that hOrC
OF EyeTmoTc,
Beyond The b0UndIezs lar away.
Well trust the wave,
And Him t. save,
Beneath vh bse IccI ; MAJ BILE lay
The rolling deep;
For IL Can keep
Our souls in that dim far away.
