The Little Boy Found
The little boy, lost in the lonely fen
Led by the wand’ ring light,
Began to cry; but god, ever nigh
He kissed the child & by the hand led
And to his mother brought,
Who in sorrow pale, thro’ the lonely dale,
Her little boy weeping sought.
The little boy, lost in the lonely fen
Led by the wand’ring light,
Began to cry; but god, ever nigh
When the voices of children, are heard on the green
And laughing is heard on the hill,
My heart is at rest within my breast
And everything else is still.
Slow……………
The little boy, lost in the lonely fen
Led by the wand’ring light,
Began to cry; but god, ever nigh
Then come home, my children, the sun is gonne down
And the dews of night.
