| - | |
| I have a King who does not speak | B |
| So wondering thro' the hours meek | B |
| I trudge the day away | C |
| Half glad when it is night and sleep | D |
| If haply thro' a dream to peep | D |
| In parlors shut by day | C |
| - | |
| And if I do when morning comes | E |
| It is as if a hundred drums | E |
| Did round my pillow roll | F |
| And shouts fill all my Childish sky | G |
| And Bells keep saying Victory | H |
| From steeples in my soul | F |
| - | |
| And if I don't the little Bird | I |
| Within the Orchard is not heard | I |
| And I omit to pray | C |
| Father thy will be done today | C |
| For my will goes the other way | C |
| And it were perjury | H |
