Lyrics
Because you live, though out of sight and reach
I will, so help me God, live bravely too
Taking the road with laughter and gay speech
Alert, intent to give life all its due
I will delight my soul with many things
The humours of the street and books and plays
Great rocks and waves winnowed by seagulls' wings
Star-jewelled Winter nights, gold harvest days
I will for your sake praise what I have missed
The sweet content of long-united lives
The sunrise joy of lovers who have kissed
Children with flower-faces, happy wives
And last I will praise Death who gives anew
Brave life adventurous and love - and you
