God’S Is The Night

by (1867–1936)

Listen in the reader

Good night,--Love rules the world,--Sleep you!-- There is no evil in Love’s sight. See how heaven’s lamps swing in the blue,-- Good night! Oh what avails the futile flight Of thought to bless the long dark through? Deep is the darkness, and, despite Of Love, our care is frail to do For those we love: but all is right, God’s is the darkness; friend, to you-- Good night!
