O God of heaven!
Lord of Elbe, on Elbe hill
Cold, clear, and blue the morning heaven
Tell me, tell me, smiling child
High waving heather ‘neath stormy blasts bending
The night of storms has past
I saw thee, child, one summer day
The battle had passed from the height
Alone I sat; the summer day
The night is darkening round me
I’ll come when thou art saddest
I would have touched the heavenly key
Now trust a heart that trusts in you
Sleep brings no joy to me
Strong I stand, though I have borne
O Mother! I am not regretting
Awake, awake! how loud the stormy morning
O wander not so far away!
Why do I hate that lone green dell?
Gleneden’s Dream
It’s over now; I’ve known it all
This shall be thy lullaby
‘Twas one of those dark, cloudy days
Douglas Ride
What rider up Gobeloin’s glen
Geraldine, the moon is shining
Where were ye all? and where wert thou?
Light up thy halls! ‘Tis closing day
O dream, where art thou now?
How still, how happy! These are words
The night was dark, yet winter breathed
The Absent One…
To the Bluebell
The busy day has hurried by
And now the house dog stretched once more
Come hither, child; who gifted thee…
