VI. A Service of Song

Оглавление

Table of Contents

Some keep the Sabbath going to church;

I keep it staying at home,

With a bobolink for a chorister,

And an orchard for a dome.


Some keep the Sabbath in surplice;

I just wear my wings,

And instead of tolling the bell for church,

Our little sexton sings.


God preaches, — a noted clergyman, —

And the sermon is never long;

So instead of getting to heaven at last,

I'm going all along!
