| Thus ever while the weary days go by | A |
| And bring thee not We miss thy bright young face | B |
| Thy bounding step thy form of girlish grace | B |
| Thy pleasant tuneful voice | C |
| We miss thee when the dewy evening hours | D |
| Come with their coolness to our garden bowers | D |
| We miss thee when the warbler's tuneful lay | E |
| Welcomes the rising glories of the day | E |
| And all glad things rejoice | C |
| - | |
| Come home the vine that climbs our cottage eaves | F |
| Hath a low murmur 'mid its glossy leaves | F |
| When the south wind sweeps by that seems to be | G |
| Too deeply laden with sad thoughts of thee | G |
| Of thee our absent one | H |
| The roses blossom and their beauties die | A |
| And the sweet violet opes its pensive eye | A |
| By thee unseen and from the old beech tree | G |
| Thy robin pours his song unheard by thee | G |
| Dally at set of sun | H |
| - | |
| Dearest come home Thy harp neglected lies | I |
| Breathing no more its wonted melodies | J |
| Thy favourite books unopened in their case | B |
| Just as thy hands arranged them keep their place | B |
| And vacant is thy seat | K |
| Beside the hearth At the still hour of prayer | L |
| Thou com'st no more with quiet reverent air | L |
| And when around the social board each face | B |
| Brings its warm welcome there's one vacant place | B |
| One smile we may not meet | K |
| - | |
| Come home thy home was never wont to be | G |
| A place where clouds might rest yet wanting thee | G |
| All pleasant scenes have dull and tasteless grown | M |
| And shadows lower shadows erewhile unknown | M |
| Of ever deepening gloom | N |
| The halls where erst thy happy childhood played | O |
| The pleasant garden by thy fair hands made | O |
| The bower thy sunny presence made so fair | L |
| Are all unchanged yet grief is everywhere | L |
| Dear one come home | P |
| - | |
| Come home come home alas what have I said | Q |
| Beyond the stars beloved thy feet have sped | Q |
| No more to press these garden paths with mine | R |
| Or walk beside my own at day's decline | R |
| No more no more to come | S |
| To these old summer haunts But I shall stay | E |
| A little while and then at fall of day | E |
| I too like thee shall sleep and wake to see | G |
| Thy Lord and mine and so shall ever be | G |
| With Him and thee at home | P |
