jo wyatt - in memory of a happy day in february by anne bronte lyrics

Loading...

blessed be thou for all the joy
my soul has felt to+day!
oh, let its memory stay with me
and never pass away!

i was alone, for those i loved
were far away from me;
the sun shone on the withered grass
the wind blew fresh and free

was it the smile of early spring
that made my bosom glow?
’twas sweet; but neither sun nor wind
could cheer my spirit so

was it some feeling of delight
all vague and undefined?
no; ’twas a rapture deep and strong
expanding in the mind

was it a sanguine view of life
and all its transient bliss
a hope of bright prosperity?
oh, no! it was not this

it was a glimpse of truth divine
unto my spirit given
illumined by a ray of light
that shone direct from heaven
i felt there was a god on high
by whom all things were made;
i saw his wisdom and his power
in all his works displayed

but most throughout the moral world
i saw his glory shine;
i saw his wisdom infinite
his mercy all divine

deep secrets of his providence
in darkness long concealed
unto the vision of my soul
were graciously revealed

but while i wondered and adored
his majesty divine
i did not tremble at his power:
i felt that god was mine;

i knew that my redeemer lived;
i did not fear to die;
full sure that i should rise again
to immortality

i longed to view that bliss divine
which eye hath never seen;
like moses, i would see his face
without the veil between
