The Poetical Works of Jonathan E. Hoag/Life, Death and Immortality
Songs of Far Vistas
Life, Death and Immortality
Let me but live this life as best I may;
Each coming year with joyous sunlit day;
If with a song I may impart some cheer
To saddened hearts this happy bright new year!
Each coming year with joyous sunlit day;
If with a song I may impart some cheer
To saddened hearts this happy bright new year!
Let me now live this life as best I may;
For none return to tell us of the way.
Intent we listen for the coming call,
From windings of the path "beyond the wall."
For none return to tell us of the way.
Intent we listen for the coming call,
From windings of the path "beyond the wall."
