THE CRYSTAL PALACE LONDON.
[Transcriber's Note: You can play this music (MIDI file) by clicking [here].]
When the sun light of gladness
Has passed from the soul,
And the dark clouds of sadness unceasingly roll,
When the past appears only
A dim vale of tears,
And the future a lonely
And wide waste of years.
2
The star of hope streaming
Through tempest and night,
Is kindly left beaming
Our pathway to light
Inspiring and cheering
The lone and oppress'd,
To the weary appearing
A haven of rest.
3
Whose calm light reposes
'Mid sadness and gloom,
On the lilies and roses
That bend o'er the tomb;
Like a seraph sweet smiling,
'Mid blight and decay,
Through the cold world beguiling
Our wearisome way.
4
In ills all-sustaining
To mortals below,
And shining and reigning
Wherever we go,
Forsaking us, never,
Companions and friend,
Then "hope on, hope ever,"
And to trust to the end.
