THE TOUCH OF A VANISHED HAND by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS

First Line: SLEEP, SLEEP, SLEEP
Last Line: THE TOUCH OF A VANISHED HAND!
Subject(s): ABSENCE; SEPARATION; ISOLATION;
Sleep, sleep, sleep,
Restore to me my Love
From out of the silent night
While Angels watch above!

Dreams, dreams, dreams,
From whence o'er sea and land
Comes the voice of one departed—
The touch of a vanished hand!
