We Cover Thee Sweet Face
We Cover Thee Sweet Face
Not that We tire of Thee
But that Thyself fatigue of Us
Remember as Thou go
We follow Thee until
Thou notice Us no more
And then reluctant turn away
To Con Thee o’er and o’er
And blame the scanty love
We were Content to show
Augmented Sweet a Hundred fold
If Thou would’st take it now
