Worn and weary by the way,
Fold me to thy breast, sweet Soother,-
Drive my heavy cares away:
For one hour. give back my treasures
All the lost, | pray, RESTORE
While slrlmbcr. fear forgetting,
Give me DREAMS of hope once more.
To the pale cheek Of my darling
Give the flush Of health again
From his hot brow chase the fever,
All the fever and The pain;
Let me see his wan face lighted
With the gladstone smile Of yorc-
Let me hear his bounding foot. step
Let me dream of Joy once more.
Sleep! kind Angel of the weary,
Bring me happy dreams, pray.
And my aching heart will bless thee,
When returns the blush of day:
