COME TO MY HEART, MY LOVE.
Copyright, 1891, by Willis Woodward & Co.
Words and Music by Julian Jordan.
Here in the shadows' deepening gloom stand I alone at evening's hour;
Hushed is the song of every bird, and the bell in yonder tower
Tells me our trysting time is come; here now I wait alone for thee;
Here in the quiet evening hour, my love, I'm waiting for thee.
Come to my heart, my love, this heart that beats but for thee,
Come rest thee here, my own, deep is my love as the sea;
No harm shall reach thee here, my own, come to my arms then, weary one,
Here, where love looks from every star above, come to my heart, my love.
Come to my heart, thou'lt find it true, how true and strong thou can'st not know;
Only the years, that love will prove-yes, 'twill ever brighter grow;
Come then, I long to hear once more those magic words thy lips can tell;
Dear heart, dear heart, I love thee true; I love thee, love thee so well.
Come to my heart, in v love, this heart that beats but for thee,
Come rest thee here, my own, deep is my love as the sea;
No harm shall reach thee here, my own, come to my arms then, weary one,
Here, where love looks from every star above, come to my heart, my love.
