Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGDGD AHAHIDIDThe road to laughter beckons me | A |
The road to all that's best | B |
The home road where I nightly see | A |
The castle of my rest | B |
The path where all is fine and fair | C |
And little children run | D |
For love and joy are waiting there | C |
As soon as day is done | D |
- | |
There is no rich reward of fame | E |
That can compare with this | F |
At home I wear an honest name | E |
My lips are fit to kiss | F |
At home I'm always brave and strong | G |
And with the setting sun | D |
They find no trace of shame or wrong | G |
In anything I've done | D |
- | |
There shine the eyes that only see | A |
The good I've tried to do | H |
They think me what I'd like to be | A |
They know that I am true | H |
And whether I have lost my fight | I |
Or whether I have won | D |
I find a faith that I've been right | I |
As soon as day is done | D |
