| Joseph Friedlander, comp. The Standard Book of Jewish Verse. 1917. | | | | Yea, More Than They | | By Alice Lucas |
| | | YEA, more than they, who through the gloomy night, | |
| Through sleepless hours that loiter on their way, | |
| Watch for the dawn above the eastern height, | |
| Yea, more than they. | |
| |
| Watching and waiting for return of day | 5 |
| My soul waits for the Lord, the Lord of might, | |
| With whom forgiveness is, my hope and stay. | |
| |
| And when His mercy thrills my soul contrite, | |
| My soul rejoices in His pardoning ray, | |
| More than they joy to see the morning light. | 10 |
| Yea, more than they. | | | | |
