UP IN THE MORNING EARLY.
MUSIC WRITTEN FOR MERRY’S MUSEUM, BY GEO. J. WEBB.
1.
Up in the morning early;
Glad spring is here once more;
And nature wears a smiling face:
Cold winter’s reign is o’er.
2.
Up in the morning early,
And seek the gay, green bowers;
Before the sun drinks up the dew,
That glitters on the flowers.
3.
Up in the morning early;
The birds are on the wing;
The air is full of music sweet;
How merrily they sing.
4.
Up in the morning early;
There’s balm in every breeze;
It comes from every vine-clad bower,
From blossoms of the trees.
5.
Up in the morning early;
O, haste to leave your bed;
Before above the eastern wave
The sun shall peep his head.
