There is another sky Matches original text
Language: English
There is another sky, Ever serene and fair, And there is another sunshine, Though it be darkness there; Never mind faded forests, Austin, Never mind silent fields — Here is a little forest, Whose leaf is ever green; Here is a brighter garden, Where not a frost has been; In its unfading flowers I hear the bright bee hum: Prithee, my brother, Into my garden come!

- Set to music by Joshua Shank (b. 1980), "There is another sky", 2011 [ voice and piano ], from Services of Snow, no. 1
