At Parting.
What is there left for us to say, Now it has come to say good-by? And all our dreams of yesterday Have vanished in the sunset sky - What is there left for us to say, Now different ways before us lie? A word of hope, a word of cheer, A word of love, that still shall last, When we are far to bring us near Through memories of the happy past; A word of hope, a word of cheer, To keep our sad hearts true and fast. What is there left for us to do, Now it has come to say farewell? And care, that bade us once adieu, Returns again with us to dwell - What is there left for us to do, Now different ways our fates compel? Clasp hands and sigh, touch lips and smile, And look the love that shall remain - When severed so by many a mile - The sweetest balm for bitterest pain; Clasp hands and sigh, touch lips and smile, And trust in GOD to meet again.
