david moore - times go by turns lyrics

Loading...

the lopped tree in time may grow again
most naked plants renew both fruit and flower;
the sorest wight may find release of pain
the driest soil suck in some moist’ning shower;
times go by turns and chances change by course
from foul to fair, from better hap to worse

the sea of fortune doth not ever flow
she draws her favours to the lowest ebb;
her tides hath equal times to come and go
her loom doth weave the fine and co+rs+st web;
no joy so great but runneth to an end
no hap so hard but may in fine amend

not always fall of leaf nor ever spring
no endless night yet not eternal day;
the saddest birds a season find to sing
the roughest storm a calm may soon allay:
thus with succeeding turns god tempereth all
that man may hope to rise, yet fear to fall

a chance may win that by mischance was lost;
the net that holds no great, takes little fish;
in some things all, in all things none are crost
few all they need, but none have all they wish;
unmeddled joys here to no man befall:
who least, hath some; who most, hath never all
