year has occupied my chateau in
Belgium, and for whom my safe can

day he takes up arms against my
country France, his name will be
struck from the chapter of knights of
the Holy Spirit. / do not ask Your
Majesty to send back the jewels or the
Order of the Holy Spirit, but wish on
the contrary that these souvenirs of
France he has betrayed shall keep

And change the spirit OF my dream
These eyes Of flesh may never see
The dazzling home that waits for me,
But yet | know it standeth sure
For those who to the end endure
A darkness settles on my way
And would my spirit soon dismay.
But in my heart I hear strain
That wakes my soul 10 life again.
Along the way that / must go
There comes strain familiar low.
And blended voices, strangely sweet,
Bedew my eyes but guide my feet.
The night is dark, as dark can be,
But someone's hand oft toucheth me:
He guideth where the road is rough
And says: My grace Is strength
