The business and trials Of life,
To think of the light in the window,
Where waiting are babies and wife.
The room may be furnished with plainness,
And traces Of want everywhere;
But touches of woman's def fingers.
Add beauty and grace, here and there.
There are wrcaths of soft, waving grasses,
And bright pictures, hanging with care;
There's curtains of soft, snowy whiteness,
That lesseu the sums dazzling glare;
There's the clean-swept he artl and the fire
light,
That's burning aud sparkling 40 free,
While mother sits waiting and singing,
To baby, n soft lullaby,
And Pet, ut the window. stands tiptoe,
Her brown curls all dancing glce;
For in the fast gathering twilight,
Her father she plainly can ace.
Over his sad face steals n softness,
The business and thoughts Of the day,
Have melted, like gulfclouds, away.
There are lights tonight, vainIy burning
And flashing, far out in the gloom,
And father, tonight, straying moth like
Round the fame of the gay bar-room.
! wish that the flame, ficrcrly burning,
Could entwine round his life alone:
But it spreads far out in its fury,
Euwrapping his loved ones-his own.
O, fathers, just pause mid your pleasure,
I'll give you a toast for Tonight
Raise high, in Your mrth, the bright wine
cup;
Qnaf deep, to the dying homc-liyht--
To the wreck Of the home you're making
To the children, sinking 81 low
The life of the girl-wifc, you're taking,
With torturing, heart-crushing, blow;
To the loss Of your friends and manhood
To the drunkar,ls despsiring woe;
Fill high the glass to DER trimming
It's the toast of all toasts-you know.
Will y"n pause Tonight, crc.you drink it,
And list to Il whispcr--sn light
That I'm sure that an angel brrathcs it:
There's light in loves window tonight"
There are homes tonight, that are broken,
The light in the window shines bright,
And sad eyes peer out in the darkness
Aw,cninr for father to-ni,ht
Lone hearts, that are aching in sadness,
Hearts throbhng, for father, tonight
While he. with heart that is throblrss,
Is sleeping, far out from the light.
Sleeping. with his hands closely folded
And lip that will answer no call.
Though the light, which streams from the
window.
Upon his pale forehead should fall.
But hope in the heart is c'cr yelling,
And faith like window stands ofr-
Der death and the grave, calmly looking,
We cling To our lost ones, with hope.
'ris the light from the window If Heaven,
That streams through the darkness and
gloam,
That lights up our lone, drrary pathway
From birth to the verge Of the tomb.
IT'S born of no creed, or no MAXIM
Tis a God-givcn ray. from the sky
No matter how dense be- I'll. darkness,
There's light in the window on High.
