Claansing Fires
Let thy gold be cast in the furnace, The red gold, precious and bright;
Do not faar the hungry fire With its caverns of burning light;
And thy gold shall return mora precious Free from every spot and stain;
For gold must be tried by fire, As a heart must be tried by pain!
In the cruet fire of Sorrow
Cast thy heart, do not faint or wail;
Let thy hand be firm and steady
Do not let thy spirit quail:
But wait till the trial is ovar
)
And take thy heart again;
For as go l d is tried by fi e,
So a h ~ art must be tri a1 by pain! ,
I shall know by the gleam nd the glitter
Of the golden chain you wear,
~
By your heart's calm strength in loving, ~
Of the fire they had to b~ar.
()
Beat on, true heart, forever.
Shine bright, strong golden chain! ~
And bless the cleansing fire,
f
And the furnace of living pain!
