<poem> | |||
Thou knowest all; I seek in vain | |||
What lands to till or sow with seed – | |||
The land is black with briar and weed, | |||
Nor cares for falling tears or rain. | |||
Thou knowest all; I sit and wait | |||
With blinded eyes and hands that fail, | |||
'Till the last lifting of the veil | |||
And the first opening of the gate. | |||
Thou knowest all; I cannot see. | |||
I trust I shall not live in vain, | |||
I know that we shall meet again | |||
In some divine eternity. | |||

Thou knowest all; I seek in vain
What lands to till or sow with seed –
The land is black with briar and weed,
Nor cares for falling tears or rain.
Thou knowest all; I sit and wait
With blinded eyes and hands that fail,
'Till the last lifting of the veil
And the first opening of the gate.
Thou knowest all; I cannot see.
I trust I shall not live in vain,
I know that we shall meet again
In some divine eternity.
