The year's at the spring And day's at the morn; Morning's at seven; The hill-side's dew-pearl'd; The lark's on the wing; The snail's on the thorn; God's in His heaven -- All's right with the world!
Three Browning Songs , opus 44
by Amy Marcy Cheney Beach (1867 - 1944)

2. Ah, Love, but a day  [sung text checked 1 time]
Ah, Love, but a day,
And the world has changed!
The sun's away,
And the bird estranged;
The wind has dropped,
And the sky's deranged;
Summer has stopped.
Look in my eyes!
Wilt thou change too?
Should I fear surprise?
Shall I find aught new
In the old and dear,
In the good and true,
With the changing year?

3. I send my heart up to thee  [sung text checked 1 time]
I send my heart up to thee, all my heart In this my singing, For the stars help me, and the sea, and the sea bears part; The very night is clinging Closer to Venice' streets to leave one space Above me, whence thy face May light my joyous heart to thee, to thee its dwelling place.
