CHANGE.
We had but a humble home,
With few and simple joys;
But my father's step was proud and firm,
And my brothers were laughing boys.
With few and simple joys;
But my father's step was proud and firm,
And my brothers were laughing boys.
We have much that we longed for then,
Our hearth is broad and bright;
But my brothers now are saddened men,
And my father's hair is white.
Our hearth is broad and bright;
But my brothers now are saddened men,
And my father's hair is white.
