Eva's Song (A Psalm Of Life) |
| Life is but an empty dream |
| For the soul is dead that slumbers |
| And things are not just as they seem |
| Life is real, life is earnest |
| And the grave is not its goal |
| «Dust thou art, to dust return» |
| Was not spoken of the soul |
| Not enjoyment, nor in sorrow |
| Is our destined end or way |
| But to act, that each tomorrow |
| Finds us farther than today |
| Art is long, and time is fleeting |
| And our hearts grow stout and brave |
| Still, like muffled drums, are beating |
| Funeral marches to the grave |
| Trust no future, however pleasant |
| Let the dead past bury its dead |
| Act, act in the living presence |
| Heart within, and God overhead |
