And at night, tired out with our frolic

We crept to our mother SO loving and
sweet
and she in one hand held our two tiny
feet,
And one arm held around US, and
taught us to pray,
Al, yes, we were babies like you yes
terday!
And our papa stood by VS. as yours
ID stands by you,
And he stopped, just like this, for .
IA sweet kiss or two;
And his look as he held out his arms
wide apart
His look-why twas just like the
throb IN our heart
When we stand by your mothers and
watch while you pray.

And the Lord lets us stay here, and
play here with you,
Because when you're weary We know
what to do.
