|
<p>Unless the Lord the house shall build,<br>
|
|
The weary builders toil in vain;<br>
|
|
Unless the Lord the city shield,<br>
|
|
The guards a useless watch maintain.</p>
|
|
<p>In vain you rise ere morning break,<br>
|
|
And late your nightly vigils keep,<br>
|
|
And of the bread of toil partake;<br>
|
|
God gives to His belovèd sleep.</p>
|
|
<p>Lo, children are a great reward,<br>
|
|
A gift from God in very truth;<br>
|
|
With arrows is his quiver stored<br>
|
|
Who joys in children of his youth.</p>
|
|
<p>And blest the man whose age is cheered<br>
|
|
By stalwart sons and daughters fair;<br>
|
|
No enemies by him are feared,<br>
|
|
No lack of love, no want of care.</p>
