| My heart is sad tonight | B |
| The day has been so drear and long | A |

| Discouragements around me throng | A |
| And gloom surpassing night | B |

| Oh sing again the song for me | C |

| Nor ever thought how I might be | C |
| Her little hindering thing | D |

| Oh sing as eventide draws near | E |
| The old time lullabys | F |
| Grandmother sang forever dear | E |
| Though in her grave this many a year | E |
| She lies who read her title clear | E |
| To mansions in the skies | F |

| Oh sing till all perplexing care | G |
| Has vanished with the day | H |
| And angels ever bright and fair | G |
| Come down the melody to share | G |
| And on their pinions lightly bear | G |
| My happy soul away | H |
