EVENTIDE. 



RONDEAU. 



A T eventide there shall be light.&quot; 

 * Why should 1 ever fear the night? 

 God s love and constant care attest, 

 He will not suffer me, His guest, 

 To thread the dark without a light. 



The light of life is Love ; and quite 

 Content am 1, if but Love might 

 Be near, when I lie down to rest, 

 At eventide. 



And Love, if we but read aright, 



Is God, who is the Light of Light. 

 What fear have I from Love s behest, 

 When Love through life hath made me blest ? 



That Love, I trust will be my light, 

 At eventide.
