Absence makes the heart grow fonder: Isle of Beauty, fare thee well!

  1. Fear not, but trust in Providence, Wherever thou may'st be.
  2. The mistletoe hung in the castle hall, The holly-branch shone on the old oak wall.
  3. Oh pilot, 't is a fearful night! There's danger on the deep.
  4. Oh, I have roamed o'er many lands, And many friends I've met; Not one fair scene or kindly smile Can this fond heart forget.
  5. The rose that all are praising Is not the rose for me.
  6. My fond affection thou hast seen, Then judge of my regret To think more happy thou hadst been If we had never met.
  7. Tell me the tales that to me were so dear, Long, long ago, long, long ago.
  8. I'm saddest when I sing.
