Author: Alfred Tennyson, 1809-1892 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 49 hymnals First Line: Late, late, so late! and dark the night and chill! Lyrics: 1. Late, late, so late! and dark the night and chill!
Late, late, so late! but we can enter still.
Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now;
Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now.
2. No light had we; for that we do repent,
And learning this, the Bridegroom will relent.
Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now;
Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now.
3. No light, so late, and dark and chill the night,
O let us in that we may find the light.
Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now;
Too late, too late, ye cannot enter now.
