Excerpt from Soul Songs It seemeth true that earth is torn and rent. That anguished hearts and shivered souls are spent With pain and glaring grief. It seemeth true that Heaven is shrouded o'er That God's sweet home has closed its door Upon the earth child's woe. It seemeth true that earth is moaning deep That hope and faith and love are locked in sleep And human need forgot.
