First Line: God could not fill all places; so he made
Last Line: When god shall fill it as one sounding sea!
Subject(s): Love


God could not fill all places; so he made
Lovers to wander in the April shade;
Lovers to comrade with the nesting birds;
Lovers to build the home with happy words;
Lovers to speak the one immortal tongue;
Lovers to keep the world forever young;
Lovers to dream of what the world shall be
When God shall fill it as one sounding sea!
