I FEAR NO FOE-Continued
But I fear and love the glamour,
Thro' thy drooping lashes seen,
But I fear and love the glamour,
Thro' thy drooping lashes seen.

Would I fend a blow so given?

Would I raise a hand to stay?
Tho' my heart in twain be riven,
And I perish in the fray,
Tho' my heart in twain be riven,
And I perish in the fray,
I fear no foe except the glamour,
Of the eyes I long to see,
I am here, love, without armour,
Strike and captive make of me,
Strike and captive make of me!

I MISS YOU, DEARIE

As the day draws to a close,
Then my sorrow ebbs and flows,

As ebbs the tide of love by night and day!
From the trees they're drifting down,
Leaves of crimson, leaves of brown,

Just as my hopes, dear, drift away!
Tho' the nightingale is singing,
Sadness to my heart he's bringing,
Because I cannot sing love's song to you;
And the twilight shadows thronging
Fill my heart with weary longing;
Maybe, dear, your heart is aching, too.

Chorus:

In the evening don't you hear me call,
"My dearie," I miss you,

And I'm dreaming, as the stars are gleaming,

That you're calling, too.

My heart's sorrow may be gone tomorrow,

For I feel my hopes may still come true.

Come back soon, for love's sweet sake!

Come back, or my heart will break!

You ought to know, my dearie, I miss you.

I LOVE YOU, CALIFORNIA

Silverwood

1 love you, California, you're the greatest state of all,
I love you in the winter, summer, spring, and in the fall,
I love your fertile valleys, your dear mountains I adore,
I love your grand old ocean and I love her rugged shore.
Chorus:

Where the snow crowned Golden Sierras

Keep their watch o'er the valley's bloom,
It is there I would be in our land by the sea,

Every breeze bearing rich perfume.

It is here nature gives of her rarest,

It is Home Sweet Home to me,

And I know when I die I shall breathe my last sigh,
For my sunny California.

I love your redwood forests, love your fields of yellow grain,
I love your summer breezes and I love your winter rain,
I love your land of flowers, land of honey, fruit and wine,
I love you, California, you have won this heart of mine.
I love your old gray Missions, love your vineyards stretch-
ing far,

I love you, California, with your Golden Gate ajar,

I love your purple sunsets, love your skies of azure blue, I love you, California, I just can't help loving you.

I love you, Catalina, you're very dear to me,

I love you, Tamalpanes, and I love Yosemite,

I love you, Land of Sunshine, half your beauties are untold, I loved you in my childhood and I'll love you when I'm old. Used by permission of author

I LOVE TO TELL THE STORY-Continued
I love to tell the story,

More wonderful it seems
Than all the golden fancies
Of all our golden dreams;
I love to tell the story,
It did so much for me,

And that is just the reason

I tell it now to thee.

I LOVE THE NAME OF DIXIE

Frost

When the Northern sunset is glowing,
Way down South my whole heart is going,
Where the cotton grows,
Where the Swanee flows,

There's a girl named Dixie Rose.

'Mid the sweet magnolias perfuming,
Rose of Dixie sweetly is blooming,
Why am I so gay?

'Cause I'm on my way,
Listen, while I say:

Chorus:

I love the name of Dixie,
Dixie, my home, sweet home;

I love its sunshine, I love its show'rs,

That's where I spent my happy happy childhood hours,
When anyone sings Dixie,

My heart it shouts with glee;
For somewhere 'neath the Southern sky
Someone waits, and that is why,

I love the name of Dixie.

Oldtime joys and scenes of my childhood,
Girls and boys who roamed in the wild-wood,
Dear old Dixie days,

And those Dixie ways,

'Round my heart their mem❜ry stays,

No one knows how much I am yearning,

For the time when I'd be returning;

Let the music play,

Start in right away,

I just want to say:

LEAD, KINDLY LIGHT
Newman

Lead, kindly light, amid th' encircling gloom,
Lead Thou me on.

The night is dark and I am far from home,
Lead Thou me on.

Keep Thou my feet, I do not ask to see
The distant scene, one step enough for me.

So long Thy pow'r has blest me, sure it still
Will lead me on.

O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, till
The night is gone.

And with the morn, those angel faces smile,
Which I have lov'd long since and lost awhile.

LEAVE ME TO LANGUISH

"Rinaldo"

Handel

Recitative:

Armeda, cruel sorc'ress,

In her mighty resentment,

Here brought me from my heav'n of sweet contentment, My grief doth seem eternal!

Slave she detains me

In torment all infernal.

O Heav'n, for pity's sake,

Let this poor heart soon break.

Solo:

Leave me to languish

Alone with sorrow,

Weeping and yearning for freedom dear.
Weeping and yearning, weeping and yearning
For freedom dear.

Leave me to languish

Alone with sorrow,

Weeping and yearning for freedom dear.

Long night of anguish!

Come soon, O morrow,

With hope returning

This heart to cheer.

Ah! with hope returning

This heart to cheer.

Leave me to languish

Alone with sorrow,

Weeping and yearning for freedom dear.
