Isaac B. Woodbury, The Riverside song book — Speed Away… (1893)
“ Stoop young heart a - wait-ing thy com-ing to - night; She will fon-dle thee moth-er hath ev - er a sad song to sing; That she standeth a - not thy bright pin - ions on yon mountain's brow; But hie thee a - close, she will ask for the lov'd. Who pine up - on earth since the lone, in the still qui-et night, And her fond heart goes forth for the way, o'er rock, riv - er and glen, And find our young "Day Star," ere "Day Star" has roved, She will ask if we miss her, so long is her be - ing of light, Who had slept in her bo - som, —but who would not night close a - gain; Up, on - ward! ”
