IT LOUISE.

1T LOUISE.
DO they not guard us here,
Do they not whisper In the evening air,
When we are mingling at the hour Of prayer
Are they not also near
Do they not watch our rest?
In pleasant dreams are they not ever near.
And make our visions blsstt
Yes, the departed come
They gather round Us at the twilight hour,
They whisper by dove-like gentle power
Oh seek a better home
They leave US not alone,
When the cold heartless world flies from our side.
And pleasures cup Is dashed In sorrows tide,
The loved ones are net gone.
Faith whispers they are given
10 guard our steps, to lead US when we stray,
To trace for US their own Unclouded way,
TIE endless bliss and heaven
