Love on! love on! but not the things that own
The fleeting beauty of a summer day;
Truth, virtue, spring from God’s eternal throne,
Nor quit the spirit when it leaves the clay:
|: Love them! :|
Love on! love on! though death and earthly change
Bring mournful silence to a darkened home;
Still let the heart rest where no eye grows strange,
Where never falls a shadow from the tomb:
|: Love there! :|
Love on! love on! the voice of grief and wrong
Comes from the palace and the poor man’s cot;
Bid the proud bend, and bid the weak be strong,
And life’s tired pilgrim meekly bear his lot:
|: Give strength! :|
