COMING HOME.

o brothers and sisters, growing old,
50 DO You ell remember get
Thar home iosthe shade Of the rustIing trees
Where once your honsehoid met!
Do you know how we used to come from school
Through the sumner pleasant heat,
With the yellow fenneps golden dust
On our tired little feet?
And sometimes in an idle mood
We loitered by the way;
And stopped in the woods to gather flowers,
And in the fields to play!
Till warmed by the deepening shadows fall
That told of the coming night,
We climbed to the top of the last long hill
And saw cur home in sight?
And, brothers and sisters, older now,
Than she whose life is DER,
Do you think of the mothers loving face,
That looked from the open door?
Alas, for the changing things of time.
That home in the dust is low;
And that loving smile was hid from us,
In the darkness, long ago.
And we have come to life's last hill,
From (WHICH our weary eyes
Can almost look in that home that shines
Eternal in the skies.
So brothers and sisters, as we 60,
Still let us move as one;
Always together keeping step,
Till the march of life is DONE
For that mother who waited for US here,
Wearing a smile so sweet,
Now waits on the hills of Paradise
For her children's coming feet!
