Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCCB DBDBEEEB FBGBHHHB| If a pleasant lawn there grow | A |
| By the showers caressed | B |
| Where in all the seasons blow | A |
| Flowers gaily dressed | B |
| Where by handfuls one may win | C |
| Lilies woodbine jessamine | C |
| I will make a path therein | C |
| For thy feet to rest | B |

| An all loving breast | B |
| Whose devotion cannot stray | D |

| For a worthy motive's sake | E |
| There a pillow I will make | E |
| For thy head to rest | B |

| If there be a dream of love | F |
| Dream that God has blest | B |
| Yielding daily treasure trove | G |
| Of delightful zest | B |
| With the scent of roses filled | H |
| With the soul's communion thrilled | H |
| There oh there a nest I'll build | H |
| For thy heart to rest | B |
