Amid the Shadows.

The shadows have gathered densely.
So dense that I cannot see
One ray of light through the darkness
And helpless 1 turn to Thee
Help me, oh merciful Saviour!
For Thou and Thou only canst know
The weight of my awful affection,
Or the depth of my terrible woe,
Can it be that again / shall never
See the flowers with their rainbow dves
The green of the trees about me,
Or the blue of the summer skies?
Never again see the faces
OF the friends that love so well?
All, God. how such darkness presses.
Only those who are blind can tell.

And l strain my eyes to see
One CLEAN of the earth's fair beauty
That is sealed forever to me.
But in vain, all is gloom and darkness
And my heart and my soul despair
Oh, Father in infinite mercy,
Answer my agonized prayer!
Grant me, pray Thee. my vision,
That [ yet once again may see
The faces so true and tender,
And the beauty of ocean and lea.
A hush, and from out the silence
Comes mystical voice 50 sweet,
my Guild, lay thy LIES sad burden
At the crucired Saviours feet
For He hears cen thy faintest whisper,
And He knows all the grief Of thine
heart
All the sorrow and pain that thou dearest,
All the anguish and fear and smart.
Though the beauty of bud and blossom,
And the glory of land and sea
Are sealed to thine earthly vision,
Yet there soon shall unfold to thee
A rarer, more glorious beauty,
In a city where all is light;
Where there is no gloom or sadness,
And where never is known night.
And the eyes of thy soul shall see clearly,
The splendors no tongue can tell
The CLEAN of the crystal river
And the bloom Of the asphodel."
A rapturous look of gladness
Dawns bright DER the fair young face
Of the maiden kneeling so lowly,
In her innocent beauty and grace
Il hear thee, my angel mother,
And thy dear face I soon shall see.
For our Father in mercy will take me,
To my heavenly home with thee"

A sigh and the soul has fled,

Falls fair DER the face of the dead.
