INTERIM

I have a little peace today,
 And I can pause and see
How life is filled with golden things
 And gracious things for me;

I can go watch the water run
 And smile to feel the air
And love the deep touch of the sun
 And know the world is fair . . .

Oh, hush, my soul, take comfort now
 And sleepy-singing lie
Till Love return to hide the sun
 And veil the earth and sky!
