Stars 2

When stars are in the quiet skies
Then most I pine for thee
Bend on me then thy tender eyes
As stars look on the sea
For thoughts, like waves that glide by night
Are stillest when they shine
Mine earthly love lies hush'd in light
Beneath the heaven of thine

There is an hour when angels keep
Familiar watch o'er men
When coarser souls are wrapp'd in sleep
Sweet spirit, meet me then
There is an hour when holy dreams
Through slumber fairest glide
And in that mystic hour it seems
Thou shouldst be by my side

My thoughts of thee too sacred are
For daylight's common beam
I can but know thee as my star
My angel and my dream
When stars are in the quiet skies
Then most I pine for thee
Bend on me then thy tender eyes
As stars look on the sea
