GO WHERE GLORY WAITS THEE.
Go where glory waits thee,
But while fame elates thee,
⟨Oh!⟩ still remember me.
Where the praise thou meetest,
To thine ear is sweetest,
Oh! then remember me.
Other arms may press thee,
Dearer friend caress thee,
All the joys that bless thee,
Sweet as far may be;
But when friends are nearest,
And, when joys are dearest,
Children remember me.
When at eve thou rovest,
By the star thou lovest,
Oh! then remember me.
Think when home returning,
Bright we've seen it burning,
Oh! then remember me.
Of as summer closes,
When thine eye reposes
On ts ling ring roses,
Once so lov'd by thee:
Think on her who wove them,
Her who made thee love them,
Oh! then remember me.
When around the dying,
Autumn leaves are lying,
Oh! then remember me.
And at night, when gazing
On the gay hearth blazing,
O ! then remember me.
Then should music stealing
All the soul of feeling.
To thy heart appealing,
Draw one tear from thee;
Then let memory bring thee,
Strains I us'd to sing thee.
Oh! then remember me.
FINIS.
