tfWhen This Cruel
War Is Over"

Dearest love, do You remember, q
when We last did meet,
How you told me that yoa loved me.
Kneeliug at my feet7 F
Oh. how proud you stood before me.
In your suit of blpe' .s. ...
When you vowed to me and cotRtEy
Every to be true.
CHosUs-weeping sad and lonely.
Hopes and fears,-how vain!
Yet praying, when this cruel war il
over,
Pzying that we meet again.
When the summer breeze is signing,
Mournfully along,
Or when autumn leaves are falling,
Sadly breathes the song.
Oft in dreams see the lying
On the battle plain
Lonely, wounded, even dying,
Calling. but in vain!
CHoRus-Weeping sad, etc.
II, amid the din of battle,
Nobly you should fall,
Far away from those who love you,
None to hear you call
Who would whisper words Of comfort,
Who would soethe your paint
All the many cruel faneies
Ever in my brain.
CaoEus-WeepIng sad, etc.
But our country called you. darling;
Angels cheer your way;
While our nations sons are fighting,
wecan only pray.
Nobly strike for God and liberty!
Let all nations see
How we love the starry banner,
Emblem of the free!
CHoRUs-Weeping sad, etc.
