RESIGNATIONTO MRS. COMAN
So long I've slept
BUT the soul's awak'ning true hath come at last,
And into my burdened heart there silently crept
Complete forgiveness of the painful past.
Sweet resignation calms my weary mind,
And all the clouds that blighted many days
Are rent asunder, drifting far away.
On pinions light my restless spirit soars
Beyond the distant sky, and find its home
In Heav'ns pure dome, where joy and peace abide.

And all the clouds that blighted many days

On pinions light my restless spirit soars
Beyond the distant sky, and find its home
In Heav'ns pure dome, where joy and peace abide.
