ethelbert nevin - the rosary lyrics

Loading...

the hours i spent with thee, dear heart
are as a string of pearls to me;
i count them over ev’ry one apart
my rosary, my rosary!

each hour a pearl, each pearl a prayer
to still a heart in absence wrung:
i tell each bead unto the end
and there a cross is hung!

o memories that bless and burn!
o barren gain and bitter loss!
i kiss each bead and strive at last to learn
to kiss the cross, sweetheart, to kiss the cross
