What Is This Life
Author: William Henry Davies, 1869-1941 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #94 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: What is this life if, full of care Lyrics: 1 What is this life if, full of care,
we have no time to stand and stare –
no time to stand beneath the boughs
and stare as long as sheep or cows;
2 No time to see, when woods we pass,
where squirrels hide their nuts in grass –
no time to see, in broad daylight,
streams full of stars, like skies at night;
3 No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
and watch her feet, how they can dance.
A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
