Though the herd have fled from thee thy home is still here | B |
Here still is the smile that no cloud can o'ercast | C |
And a heart and a hand all thy own to the last | C |

Oh what was love made for if 'tis not the same | D |
Through joy and through torment through glory and shame | D |
I know not I ask not if guilt's in that heart | C |

Thou hast call'd me thy angel in moments of bliss | E |

Through the furnace unshrinking thy steps to pursue | F |
And shield thee and save thee or perish there too | F |
