1 Starry crowns of Heaven,
Set in azure night!
Linger yet a little,
Ere you hide your light.
Nay; let starlight fade away,
Heralding the day!
2 Blossoms, gentle blossoms,
Do not wither yet;
Still for you the sun shines,
Still the dews are wet.
Nay, but fade and wither fast,
Fruit must come at last.
3 Joy, so true and tender,
Dare you not abide?
Will you spread your pinions,
Must you leave our side?
Nay; an angel's shining grace
Waits to fill your place.
