MINE IS THE MOURNING HEART.
DON'T BET YOUR MONEY ON DE SHANGHAI.
MOLLY DEAR GOOD NIGHT.
OUR WILLIE DEAR IS DYING.
“Lizzie Dies To-Night.”
OUR BRIGHT, BRIGHT SUMMER DAYS ARE GONE
I'LL BE A SOLDIER
“WHY HAVE MY LOVED ONES GONE?”
OH! TELL ME OF MY MOTHER.
FAREWELL MOTHER DEAR.
SWEET LITTLE MAID OF THE MOUNTAIN
FAREWELL SWEET MOTHER.
LITTLE BELLE BLAIR
NELL AND I
“A PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS!”
A THOUSAND MILES FROM HOME.

The Merry, Merry Month of May.
A DREAM OF MY MOTHER AND MY HOME.
“THAT'S WHAT'S THE MATTER.”
BETTER TIMES ARE COMING.

BURY ME IN THE MORNING, MOTHER.
LITTLE ELLA'S AN ANGEL!
“SUFFER LITTLE CHILDREN TO COME UNTO ME.”
WILLIE'S GONE TO HEAVEN.
I'M NOTHING BUT A PLAIN OLD SOLDIER
I'D BE A FAIRY.
TEARS BRING THOUGHTS OF HEAVEN.
LEAVE ME WITH MY MOTHER.
GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD.
SEEK AND YE SHALL FIND.
I WOULD A YOUTHFUL.
WE'LL ALL MEET OUR SAVIOUR.
FRIENDS OF THE POOR.
THE ANGELS ARE SINGING UNTO ME.
ON THE BANKS OF LIFE'S FAIR RIVER.
LENA OUR LOVED ONE IS GONE
TELL ME OF THE ANGELS, MOTHER.
HOW HAPPY.
WHILE WE WORK FOR THE LORD.
FOR A WHILE THE HEART GROWS WARM.
SITTING BY MY OWN CABIN DOOR
WHEN DEAR FRIENDS ARE GONE.
TELL ME LOVE OF THY EARLY DREAMS
The Voices That Are Gone
PRAISE THE LORD!
ETERNITY!
KISS ME DEAR MOTHER ERE I DIE.

Some folks like to sigh,
Some folks do, some folks do;
Some folks long to die,—
But that's not me nor you.
