LOVE THEE.
Love thee? Yes, while life doth linger,
Around our pathway blending ever,
Two hearts united, our loves are plighted,
While on earth we are united.
Coldness nor wrong can e'er dissever
My heart from thine,—'twill love forever:
Around our very life and being
Closest ties of love are twining.
Weaving there a home of beauty,
Where to love is our true duty:
My heart from thine,—'twill love forever:
Around our very life and being
Closest ties of love are twining.
Weaving there a home of beauty,
Where to love is our true duty:
Then our hearts would never wander,
Nought on earth could e'er be fonder.
For each other our loves are blended,
Until on earth our lives are ended.
Nought on earth could e'er be fonder.
For each other our loves are blended,
Until on earth our lives are ended.
This is love, with Heaven's blessing,—
Each ever true and fondly caressing,—
Until we pass from earth away,
To re-unite in Heaven at a future day.
Each ever true and fondly caressing,—
Until we pass from earth away,
To re-unite in Heaven at a future day.
