Author: Rev. L. F. Cole Hymnal: TS31892 #52 (1892) First Line: I have seen a mother weeping Refrain First Line: Oh, 'twas rum that spoil'd my darling Lyrics: 1 I have seen a mother weeping, O’er a little pallid face; I have seen her kiss the forehead, Seen the last, sad, fond embrace; I have seen her heavy, heart-sore, Turning toward her home again; And I’ve envied her her sadness, There was much to soothe her pain. Refrain: Oh, ‘twas rum that spoil’d my darling, Rum, enthron’d but to destroy; Drive the monster from the nation, Then you’ll shout, “We’ve sav’d the boy!” 2 I have known a mother waiting, Waiting while the years roll’d by, Starting from her dreams at midnight, Waiting, watching eagerly, For her boy, long lost and wand’ring In some strange and distant land, And I’ve tho’t, oh blest the watcher! Hoping yet to clasp his hand. [Refrain] 3 I have seen a mother pacing On the shore where breaks the sea, Pleading with the stormy waters, “Give, oh give my boy to me!” But by waves by far more cruel, Waves that drowned my sweetest joy, I am sitting and lamenting, Oh, ‘twas rum that spoiled my boy! [Refrain] 4 Gaze into the eyes cherubic; Rain your kisses on his cheek; Clasp him fondly to your bosom, Feel the thrill you cannot speak; Link yourself to God and heaven, All your mother-love employ, That your lips may never falter, Oh, ‘twas rum that spoiled my boy! [Refrain] Topics: Solo; Temperance Tune Title: [I have seen a mother weeping]

Happy voices

Refrain: Head the children singing, Grateful tribute bringing, Strains of sweetest music, Praises to their King; Hear their happy voices, Heav’n with earth rejoices; O, the angels listen when the children sing. 2 Sang a choir of angels at the Savior’s birth, “Glory in the highest, peace, good will on earth;” List’ning now, I fancy still I hear the strain, Heard by wond’ring shepherds on Judea’s plain. [Refrain] 3 But the song grows sweeter, dearer still to me, As by faith if leads me all his love to see; Who, to rescue sinners, left his throne on high, Made himself their ransom, gave himself to die. [Refrain] 4 Grander still the music when in heav’n we sing, Glory to our Savior, glory to our King; From our sins he wash’d us, he our sorrows bore, Reign, O Christ, forever, reign forevermore.

A better world

Author: Clara Cole Hymnal: TS31892 #55 (1892) First Line: There is another, better world Lyrics: 1 There is another, better world, Beyond this world of ours, Whose crystal streams in beauty glide, Amid immortal, immortal flow’rs; ‘Tis there I hope to meet with those I’ve loved and lost below, Where pain and anguish ne’er again Shall cause my tears to flow, Where pain and anguish ne’er again Shall cause my tears to flow. 2 O, how my spirit sighs for those Sweet flow’rs and living streams, To hear the music of those harps, I seem to hear, to hear in dreams; For me a golden harp is tuned, For me a crown prepared; Oh why should I then murmur, when For me there’s such reward, Oh why should I then murmur, when For me there’s such reward. 3 Then grant, O gracious Lord, my pray’r, That I may be resigned, To bear whatever earthly care, Thou hast to me in love assigned, And tho’ fond hearts by death’s cold hand, From mine are rudely riven, Yet soon I’ll meet, to part no more, With those I love in heaven, Yet soon I’ll meet, to part no more, With those I love in heaven.
