An I've conjured up the sorrows that Il
seemed were sure TO fan
Upon me an to wrap me I'm a sort o. somber
PAIL
But the Ills have always vanished when the
morning cried: Begonel
An dream o. peace came steaii-. through
the gateway of the dawn.
An so say to sinners. an 10 saints who
strive as we'll,
The cares that came upon you when the
shades o. sorrow fell
VIII vanish with the vision OF n soul-on-
lightened day,
An God will wipe the tear-drops from your
swollen eyes away.
Tho host OF little worries that bcsct you
through the night
Shall steal In stealth an. bs' .lshed. shall be
frowning In their flight.
An tho rest VIII be tho sweeter for the
Ills you've undergone
When that holy peace comes stealing
through the gateway OF the dawn.
