Beyon The Years

Beyon the Years
PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR
2933

Revond the years the answer lies
Beyond where broods the grieving skies
And night drops tears
Where Faith rou-chastened amiles to rise
And doff its fears
And carping sorrow pines and dies- Beyond the years

Beyond the years the prayer for rest
Shall heat no more within the breast;
The darkness clears
And Morn perched on the mountains crest
Her form uprears- The day, that te to come is bost
Beyond the years

Beyond the years the soul shall find
That endless peace for which it pined,
For light appears
And to the eyes that stiil were blind
With blood and tears
Their sight shall come all unconfined Beyond the years
