Eliza slept and dreamed of peace,Of lands where all is rest;Of bright, green shores where sorrows cease,Of homes which God had blest.
She dreamed her child was happy there,A free and merry boy;She felt that God had heard her prayer,And filled her life with joy.
She heard a step; she felt a tearUpon her forehead fall;She knew that he she loved was near,—Her husband and her all.
