O Let the Solid Ground lyrics

O let the solid ground
Not fail beneath my feet
Before my life has found
What some have found so sweet!
Then let come what come may
What matter if I go mad
I shall have had my day

Let the sweet heavens endure
Not close and darken above me
Before I am quite quite sure
That there is one to love me!
Then let come what come may
To a life that has been so sad
I shall have had my day
