What is the cause that the former days were better than these? (Eccl. 7:10)
Then believed they His words; they sang His praise. (Psa. 106:12)
Gently loosens He thy hold
Of the treasured former things —
Loves and joys that were of old,
Shapes to which the spirit clings —
And alone, alone He stands,
Stretching forth beseeching hands.
In the silence of that dawn
God shall speak His words of grace;
Light that round thy waking shone
Is the radiance of His face;
Yearning of His heart to thee
Fills the deep immensity.
