'While yonder though thy window breaks' Though the shards my cut my skin
The wounds will be healed with your love
As beautiful as the white dove
As gentle as the somber sea
Your love is always with me
Did thou's love come with the changing wind?
Or did thy God put this blessing upon me?
I know death will not be the end
Because though the dagger pierces my heart I feel no pain
I know only sadness
For I will hold your hand no longer
For I will not see you on the morrow
All I feel is sorrow, sorrow
For the knife that pierced my heart was of your blood
On the morrow I shall wake
And look upon thy Heaven's gate
There I shall sit
Not crossing but waiting
Not crossing but waiting
For thou's love return with the changing wind
