My love to thee I give, For thou my love hast won, Deep in my heart to live, Thy glance a sunbeam shone. My life to thee I give, For thou art life to me, Within thy heart to live Forever, heaven would be!
Four Songs , opus 29
by Amy Marcy Cheney Beach (1867 - 1944)
1. Within thy Heart
Language: English
2. The wandering knight  [sung text not yet checked]
Language: English
My ornaments are arms, My pastime is in war, My bed is cold upon the wold, My lamp yon star. My journeyings are long, My slumbers short and broken; From hill to hill I wander still, Kissing thy token. I ride from land to land, I sail from sea to sea; Some day more kind I fate may find, Some night, kiss thee.
