[superspazz201]

this song is amazing! I sang it this year in choir

[ThisIsKaiG]

O eager eyes which gaze afar,

O arms that clasp the empty air,

Not all unmarked you sorrows are,

Have faith! Before Life's tent is furled

O hearts that hunger through the world!

Some Hearts go hungering thro' the world

And never find the love they seek.

Thank you very much! =)

[ThisIsKaiG]

Some lips with pride or scorn are curled To hide the pain they may not speak. Some hearts go hungering thro' the world And never find the love they seek. To hind the pain they may not speak. The eyes may flash, the mouth may smile And yet beneath then all the while The hungering heart is pining still. For them does life's dull desert hold No fountain's shade, no gardens fair, Nor gush of waters clear and cold, But sandy reaches wide and bare.

[ThisIsKaiG]

The foot may fail, the soul may faint, And weigh to earth the weary frame, Yet still they make no weak complaint and speak no word of grief or blame. O eager eyes, which gaze afar, O arms that clasp the empty air, Not all unmarked your sorrows are, Not all unpitied your despair. O eager eyes, which gaze a gar, O arms that clasp for empty air. Have Faith! Have Faith! Befor life's tent is furled, is furled. Your recompense shall come, O hearts that hunger through the world!
