All natures works, with one accord,
Proclaim, "haye faith in time"
'Have faith in time" impatient one;
Go watch the roses grow,
Silently. imperceptibly,
No change your eye know:
But now there's borne upon the air
cloud OF perfume sweet,
A flush as of a sunset cloud,
rose is at your feet!
"Have faith in time" Thy future life
Thou mavst seek to know.
Ills yelled from thy too curious eyes,
For God has willed it So
Yet heed the moments as they go.
Ere they are lost to thee;
For each one. as il passes by.
is big With destiny.
