William Cowper - Olney Hymn 66: I Will Praise The Lord At All Times

Описание

Winter has a joy for me, While the Saviour's charms I read, Lowly, meek, from blemish free, In the snowdrop's pensive head. Spring returns, and brings along Life-invigorating suns: Hark! the turtle's plaintive song Seems to speak His dying groans! Summer has a thousand charms, All expressive of His worth; 'Tis His sun that lights and warms, His the air the cools the earth. What! has autumn left to say Nothing of a Saviour's grace? Yes, the beams of milder day Tell me of his smiling face. Light appears with early dawn, While the sun makes haste to rise; See His bleeding beauties drawn On the blushes of the skies. Evening with a silent pace, Slowly moving in the west, Shews an emblem of His grace, Points to an eternal rest. William Cowper poemhunter.com/poem/olney-hymn-66-i-will-praise-the-lord-at-all-times/
