From far, from eve and morning Lyrics

        
         XXXII
        
From far, from eve and morning
         And yon twelve-winded sky,
The stuff of life to knit me
         Blew hither: here am I.
        
Now — for a breath I tarry
         Nor yet disperse apart —
Take my hand quick and tell me,
         What have you in your heart.
        
Speak now, and I will answer;
         How shall I help you, say;
Ere to the wind's twelve quarters
         I take my endless way.

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
