Dinah Maria Mulock Craik - Angel Faces II lyrics

But in the night time, 'twixt it and the stars, The angel faces still come glimmering by; No d**h-pale shadow, no averted eye Marking the inevitable doom that bars Me from them. Not a cloud their aspect mars; And my sick spirit walks with them hand in hand By the cool waters of a pleasant land: Sings with them o'er again, without its jars, The psalm of life, that ceased, as one by one Their voices, dropping off, left mine alone With dull monotonous wail to grieve the air. O solitary love, that art so strong, I think God will have pity on thee erelong, And take thee where thou'lt find those angel faces fair.
