| To Music |
| | | Maude Gordon-Roby |
| | | | | “Music, the language, the atmosphere of the Soul.” |
| |
| |
| FLY back where Melodies like lilies grow, | |
| My weary heart is bending low; | |
| |
| Fly higher yet to joyful realms above, | |
| Where holy Angels dwell in love. | |
| |
| Fly higher still and hear the Angel throng | 5 |
| And bring to me their Glory-song: | |
| |
| Ah Music, thou and I above the World | |
| May dwell where heaven with shining song is pearled! | |
| |
| While Sun and Moon and all the planets roll | |
| I’ll love thee, Music, language of my soul! | 10 |
| |
| Music-lark from on high, song that doth fly, Spark of the sky! | |
| |
