Dreaming of Home

Dreaming of Home
Dreaming of home, dear old home! 
Home of my childhood and mother; 
Oft when I wake 'tis sweet to find, 
I've been dreaming of home and mother; 
Home, Dear home, childhood happy home, 
When I played with sister and with brother, 
Twas the sweetest joy when we did roam, 
Over hill and thro' dale with mother. 
(＊Chorus: ) 
Dreaming of home, dear old home, 
Home of my childhood and mother; 
Oft when I wake 'tis sweet to find, 
I've been dreaming of home and mother. 
2.
Sleep balmy sleep, close mine eyes, 
Keep me still thinking of mother; 
Hark! 'tis her voice I seem to hear. 
Yes, I'm dreaming of home and mother. 
Angels come, soothing me to rest, 
I can feel their presence and none other; 
For they sweetly say I shall be blest; 
With bright visions of home and mother. 
(＊Chorus: ) 
3.
Childhood has come, come again, 
Sleeping I see my dear mother; 
See her loved form beside me kneel
While I'm dreaming of home and mother. 
Mother dear, whisper to me now, 
Tell me of my sister and my brother; 
Now I feel thy hand upon my brow, 
Yes, I'm dreaming of home and mother. 
(＊Chorus: )
