    I never thought it would be paradise
    I walked a rugged pathway from the start
    No ugliness was hidden from my eyes nor
    Was life’s pain a stranger to my heart
    And yet the earth sprung firm beneath my feet and summer winds were gentle through my hair
    I breathed upon the dusk and found it sweet
    I gazed upon the dawn and found it fair
    I know gray moor’s where shadow mists lie curled in sun bright streams and night sky’s rich with stars
    For all it’s faults, I so have loved this world and found it beautiful despite its scars
    Though angels sing of greater glories still, I leave in sadness, much against my will.
