In the storm and the strife, when the
lightnings OF life
Had blasted my deepest endeavor.
She crept to my side when the last nope

And whispered: Il love you forever
And the bitter unrest of grief stricken

Saw star through the black shadows
living;
Knew IA joy from above in the strength
of that love
That is wounded, and yet is forgiving.
And sorrow now seems but a phantom
of dreams.
And peace shall depart from me never:
Ger life'S valley signs. see! the light in

For she whispers. II love you forever"
