do not ask when love has fled
! And lips loved prove cold. untrue,
. | do not ask when love is dead.
| That love it's bright flames may renew.
1 only ask the power To love
And all life's bitterness forget
| l only ask to look above,
Though with my grief my eyes are wet
I do not ask that I may H. know r,,.

Nor would l question as l go
Why mine life's pain-with naught OF
bliss,
l only ask that may feel
And know-whatever may befall-
That God Himself will not Forget.
He ever stands where shadows fall.
