50. O HEAVY WEIGHT OF TODAY'S HOURS

O heavy weight of today’s hours,
Tomorrow I shall meditate
And away I shall fly.

O heavy weight of today’s hours,
Tomorrow I shall meditate
And make God my heart.

O heavy weight of today’s hours,
Tomorrow I shall meditate
And Eternity’s bird will offer me
Its wings
To fly in the soul-sky
Of Infinity’s Immortality.
