THE VOICE OF THE GRASS.

Hero como creeping, creeping everywhere
By tho dusty roadside,
On the sunny hillside,
Close by The noisy brook,
In every shady nook,
como creeping, creeping everywhere,
Here conc creeping, creeping everywhere
All round tho open door,
Where sit the aged poor,
Here wherc the children play,
In the bright and merry May,
come creeping, creeping everywhere.
Here l come creeping, creeping everywhere
In the noisy city street
My pleasant face you'll meet,
Cheering the sick at heart,
Toiling his busy part,
Silently creeping, creeping everywhere
Here come creeping, creeping everywhere
You cannot sec Inc coming,
Nor hear my low, sweet humming;
For in tho starry night,
And the glad morning light,
come quietly creeping everywhere
Ilorc come creeping, creeping everywhere
More welcome than the flowers,
In summers pleasant hours;
The gentle COW is glad,
And the merry bird not sad,
TO sec nc creeping, creeping everywhere
Hero como creeping, creeping everywhere ;
When you're numbered with thc dead,
In your still and narrow bed,
In the huppy spring I'll come,
And deck your silent home,
Creeping silently, creeping everywhere.
Here come creeping, creeping everywhere;
My humble song of praise
Most gratefully raise
To Him at whose command
Ibeautify the land,
Creeping silently, creeping everywhere.
