A Dream Lyrics
In visions of the dark night
I have dreamed of joy departed
(Dream!)
But a waking dream of life and light
Hath left me broken-hearted.
(Dream!)
Ah! what is not a dream by day
To him whose eyes are cast
(Dream!)
On things around him with a ray
Turned back upon the past?
(Dream!)
That holy dream- that holy dream,
While all the world were chiding,
You cheered me as a lovely beam
A lonely spirit guiding.
What though that light, thro' storm and night,
So trembled from afar-
(Dream!)
What could there be more purely bright
In Truth's day-star?
(Dream!)
I have dreamed of joy departed
(Dream!)
But a waking dream of life and light
Hath left me broken-hearted.
(Dream!)
To him whose eyes are cast
(Dream!)
On things around him with a ray
Turned back upon the past?
(Dream!)
While all the world were chiding,
You cheered me as a lovely beam
A lonely spirit guiding.
So trembled from afar-
(Dream!)
What could there be more purely bright
In Truth's day-star?
(Dream!)
