Charles Strong - Sunrise lyrics

I stood at gaze where the free hills arise, Whence rocks mid deepest solitudes are seen, And glimmering through dark foliage, the blue sheen Of ocean stained with heaven's own sapphire dyes: Then into the deep air I raised my eyes; The steadfast dome was cloudless and serene, Fit roof to over-arch so fair a scene, For earth in loveliness vied with the skies. Enrolled, methought, among a happier race, I felt immortal moments as I said, d**h finds no entrance here, and sin no place; Then quick to mark where recent footsteps led, I saw one bending over the furrow's trace, And on his brow the primal sentence read.
