Thou and I
W. Baines
We are walking in Gladness, my dear one,
as we wend along life's way,
and our hearts are full of happiness
Thou and I today;
If trouble should come up on us, or sorrow fall to our part
Should we be willing to share it, to feel together its smart:
Thou and I sweetheart?
If our joys, my dearest, we together do share,
Then adversity, surely, will not be a terrible care;
For love smooths half the trials that fall upon life's way
And amity brings comfort for ever and aye
If it's Thou and I alway.
