With All Our Life Ahead, We Dream
With all our life ahead, we dream,
We idle hours away with futile plan
With detailed filling of the years to come
And never doubt our earthly span.
What if this were no more?
If you were taken from me, or I from you?
Where then would be our promised paradise
What if we were no longer two?
It could not be! It could not be!
Where lovers live eternity is near
There peace unrivalled lives and strife is far,
Nor sorrow can prevail nor fear.
But others thus have loved, and lost;
When mankind so far from love and light
Has torn apart and rent asunder those
Who seek no other than their right.
Their right? It seems we have no right
To love, to cling as two by God made one:
We have no say when others mutilate
Their world and ours with sword and gun.
The lover's voice cries to the world in vain
To God alone our plea, for love he gave;
Then he must judge our life if it be full
Each moment lived as all we have.
And Then I Knew
Why Did Our God
To Fight A Wave
The Little Boy Went Forth
Home
The Sun Rising Over The Sea
