HYMN

[[v]]

AT morn — at noon — at twilight dim,

Maria! thou hast heard my hymn!

In joy and woe, in good and ill,

Mother of God, be with me still!

[[v]]

When the Hours flew brightly by,

[[v]]

And not a cloud obscured the sky,

My soul, lest it should truant be,

[[v]]

Thy grace did guide to thine and thee;

[[v]]

Now, when storms of Fate o’ercast

[[v]]

Darkly my Present and my Past,

Let my Future radiant shine

With sweet hopes of thee and thine!
