Emily Dickinson - I know that He exists lyrics

338 I know that He exists. Somewhere—in Silence He has hid his rare life From our gross eyes 'Tis an instant's play 'Tis a fond Ambush Just to make Bliss Earn her own surprise! But—should the play Prove piercing earnest Should the glee—glaze In d**h's—stiff—stare Would not the fun Look too expensive! Would not the jest Have crawled too far!
