Far, far beneath the noise of tempest dieth,

And silver waves chime ever peacefully;

And no rude storm, how fierce soe'er he flieth,

Disturbs the Sabbath of that deeper sea.

So to the soul that knows thy love, O Purest,

There is a temple peaceful evermore.

And all the babble of life's angry voices

Dies hushed in stillness at its sacred door.

Far, far away the noise of passion dieth,

And loving thoughts rise ever peacefully;
