McCoy. I am going far away, No rah darling; And leaving such an angel far behind! It will break my heart in two. Which I fondly .gave to you. And no other one's so loving, kind and true. * k Chorus— Then come to my arms, Norah darling. Bid your frjends In dear old Ireland good-bye; And It's happy you will be. In that dear land of the free. Living happy with your Barney Mo* Coy, .. ' iiL" rr I would go with you, Barney, darling. But the reason why I’ve told you oft before; It would break my mother’s heart. If from her I had to part, And go roaming with you, Barney MoCoy. I am going far away, Norah, darling, Just as sure as there’s a God we both adore, And remember what I say, Not until the Judgment day Will you ever see your Barney any more. I would go with you, Barney, darling. If my mother and the rest of them were there, For I know we would be blest In that dear land of the west. Living happy with you, Barney Mo* Coy. I am going far away, Norah darling, And the ship Is now anchored in tha bay; And before to-morrow’s.sun You will hear the signal gun. So be ready. It will carry us away. —Author Unknown. Watt’s Cradle Song. Hush, my dear! lie still and slumber. Holy angels guard thy bed; Heavenly blessings without number Gently falling on thy head. Sleep, my babe, thy food and raiment. House and home thy friends provide All without thv care nr All thy wants are well supplied. Soft and easy is thy cradle, Course and hard thy Savior lay. When his birthplace was a stable And his softest bed Was hay. May’st thou live to know and fear Him, Trust and love H(m all thy days; Then go dwell forever near Him, See His face and sing His praise.
