Awake awake my little boy
Thou wast thy mothers only joy
Why dost thou weep in thy gentle sleep
Awake thy father does thee keep
O what land is the land of dreams
What are its mountains and what are its streams
O father I saw my mother there
Among the lillies by waters fair
Among the clouds clothed in white
She walkd with her Thomas in sweet delight
I wept for joy like a dove I mourn
O when shall I again return
Dear child I also by pleasant streams
Have wanderd all night in the land of dreams
But though calm and warm the waters wide
I could not get to the other side
Father O Father what do we here
In this land of unbelief & fear
The land of dreams is better far
Above the light of the Morning Star
Thou wast thy mothers only joy
Why dost thou weep in thy gentle sleep
Awake thy father does thee keep
O what land is the land of dreams
What are its mountains and what are its streams
O father I saw my mother there
Among the lillies by waters fair
Among the clouds clothed in white
She walkd with her Thomas in sweet delight
I wept for joy like a dove I mourn
O when shall I again return
Dear child I also by pleasant streams
Have wanderd all night in the land of dreams
But though calm and warm the waters wide
I could not get to the other side
Father O Father what do we here
In this land of unbelief & fear
The land of dreams is better far
Above the light of the Morning Star
