Our House of Dreams
Almost a score of years
’Mid smiles and tears,
We’ve builded, you and I, our house of dreams,
And still through all the days,
Along the stony ways
Love’s halo gleams.
Sometime the day was bright;
Sometime a Winter light
Fell where we toiled slow with willing hands;
But Love was always there,
A gleam of light to spare
From Promise Lands.
We’ve seen the structure tall
In hopeless ruin fall
And hope’s fair star shine out with feeble gleams;
But Love, Sweetheart, is true
As we begin anew
Our house of dreams.
