The lark may sing her sweetest song,
As rising from the waving corn,
on soaring wings she skins along,
To welcome the rising morn.
Her sweetest song is naught TO me,
Compared 20 homes sweet harmony.
Deep In the woods the nightingale,
Az midnight hour may tune her lay,
May pour uPOn the listening vale
Her loysllest stream Of melody;
Lovely midnight lay may be,
But lovelier homes sweet harmony.
sweet are the songsters Of tho spring,
And Of the summers sunny days,
And autum's feathefed warblerB sing
In raptnr0us strains their sweetest LAYS
Lovely the song OF bower and tree,
But loyeller homes sweet melody.
But oh, what cheers the winter night,
When an around Is dark and gloom,
When feathered sOnFsters take their night
Or Old : gloomy little tomb?
IT'S at sHoh hours as these that we
Prize most our homes sweet harmony.
Oh, when dark clouds above us lower,
And LIES drear winter DER us comes,
lis then we feel your magic power,
We sOngsters OF our hearts and homes n
For soon the lowering clouds do Zee
From our dear homes sweet harmony.
