THE LOST KEY, by                    
First Line: The key of yesterday
Last Line: Unlocks tomorrow.
Subject(s): Religion; Theology


The key of yesterday
I threw away;
And now, too late,
Before tomorrow's fast-closed gate
Helpless I stand—in vain to pray!
In vain to sorrow!
Only the key of yesterday
Unlocks tomorrow.
