joy - gwyneth walker lyrics
Loading...
’tis so much joy! ’tis so much joy!
if i should fail, what poverty!
and yet, as poor as i
have ventured all upon a throw!
have gained! yes! hesitated so—
this side the victory!
life is but life! and death, but death!
bliss is, but bliss, and breath but breath!
and if indeed i fail
at least, to know the worst, is sweet!
defeat means nothing but defeat
no drearier, can befall!
and if i gain! oh gun at sea!
oh bells, that in the steeples be!
at first, repeat it slow!
for heaven is a different thing
conjectured, and waked suddеn in—
and might extinguish me!
