Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Songs of the Day and Night: Or Three Centuries of Original Hymns for Public and Private Praise and Reading; The Life-Story of Jesus Christ; A Cantata With Other Sacred Poems My Heart. A reminiscence of St Augustine. 1. As in the stillness of the night I lie awake; The hours - like birds wing-weary - flight Towards Heav´n take; And from the beating of my heart Untaught of Art, Fancy, from every pulse and pause, Quaint symbols draws. 2. A lifted axe it seems to me, With steady stroke Like woodmans that falls momently Against an oak; Felling, felling the tree of life: O fateful strife I I hush myself that I may hear, Yet do not fear. 3. The solemn sign I would receive - To Thy sweet will Yielding myself - its sense believe, Aye and until Thou, Lord! shalt give the word to smite It shall be right; Let the tree fall; ´tis in Thy Hand, I´ll fearless stand.
