So fall asleep
love, loved by me...For I know love, I am
loved by thee
Grow old along with me!
The best is yet to be,
The last of life, for which the first was
made:
Our times are in His hand
Who saith "A whole I planned,
Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor
be afraid!"
So fall asleep love, loved
by me... For I know love, I am loved by thee
Alas, we loved, sire used to
meet: How sad and bad and mad it was But then,
how it was sweet!
O lyric Love, Half angel and
half bird
And all a wonder and a wild desire.
What's earth with all its
art, verse, music, worth compared with love,
found, gained and kept?
