Parting Hearts
Life is a scene of comings and partings.
We once to mighty love did come—oh, how
sweetly we came!
And long did we last like twinkles in the sky.
But now we part to different arms—oh, how
swiftly we do!
The sweet breath of a stranger has blown into
thine heart and there quenched the flame that
once kept our love warm.
‘Tis time to untwine our hearts and untwine
our tears
And to pray to grieving Heaven that to those
blazing arms that now beckon
We'll forever come and come and come and
never once part
Whilst we ride and love in the fields of eternity!
