Edgar Guest - We`re Dreamers AllEdgar Guest - We`re Dreamers All
Work rating: Low


Oh, man must dream of gladness wherever his pathways lead, And a hint of something better is written in every creed; And nobody wakes at morning but hopes ere the day is o`er To have come to a richer pleasure than ever he`s known before. For man is a dreamer ever. He glimpses the hills afar And plans for the joys off yonder where all his to-morrows are; When trials and cares beset him, in the distance he still can see A hint of a future splendid and the glory that is to be. There`s never a man among us but cherishes dreams of rest; We toil for that something better than that which is now our best. Oh, what if the cup be bitter and what if we`re racked with pain? There are wonderful days to follow when never we`ll grieve again. Back of the sound of the hammer, and back of the hissing steam, And back of the hand at the throttle is ever a lofty dream; All of us, great or humble, look over the present need To the dawn of the glad to-morrow which is promised in every creed.
