| The charm that bore our souls along | A |
| As in the sun flushed days of summer | B |
| We felt the pulsings of nature's throng | A |
| - | |
| When flecks of foam of flying spray | C |
| Smote white the red sun's torrid ray | C |
| Or wimpling fogs toyed with the mountain | D |
| A rial spirits of dew at play | C |
| - | |
| When hovering stars poised in the blue | E |
| Came down and ever closer drew | E |
| Or in the autumn air astringent | F |
| Glimmered the pearls of the moonlit dew | E |
| - | |
| - | |
| We talked of bird and flower and tree | G |
| Of God and man and destiny | G |
| The years are wise though days be foolish | H |
| We said as swung to its goal the sea | G |
| - | |
| Our spirits knew keen fellowship | I |
| Of light and shadow heart and lip | I |
| The veil of M y grew transparent | F |
| And hidden things came within our grip | I |
| - | |
| And then we sang In Arcady | F |
| All hearts are born thus happy free | G |
| Till film of sin shuts out the Vision | D |
| That is and was and that is to be | G |
| - | |
| - | |
| Thus wrought the Seen Unseen the spell | J |
| To which our spirits rose and fell | J |
| As drops of dew throb with the ocean | D |
| We felt ourselves of His tidal swell | J |
| - | |
| Nature's enchantment is of Love | K |
| Goodness and truth and beauty wove | L |
| In Him all things do hold together | B |
| And onward upward to Him they move | M |
| - | |
| And as we spake the full moon came | N |
| A splendid globe in silver flame | N |
| From out the dusky waste of waters | O |
| Reposeful sped by His mighty name | N |
| - | |
| - | |
| Sweetheart I dedicate to thee | G |
| These Song Waves from life's voiceful sea | G |
| They ebb and flow with swift occasion | D |
| Bearing rich freight and perhaps debris | G |
| - | |
| Each murmuring low its song apart | F |
| May hint a symphony of art | F |
| Since under all within and over | B |
| Is diapason of Love's great heart | F |
| - | |
| For thee as on the bridal day | F |
| Sweet our November as the May | F |
| Are joined in one our high communings | G |
| So take them dear as thine own I pray | F |
| - | |
