TWO LITTLE CHILDREN

Two little children a boy and a girl

Stood by an old church door

The little girls shoes were as bright as the tears

That fell upon the dress that she wore

The little boy's coat was all ragged and torn

And tears shone in his blue eyes

Why don't you go home to your mother I said

and this was the maidens reply

Mammas in heaven they took her away

Away to that home far and bright

She said that she'd call on her darlings some day

And perhaps she will call them tonight

Daddy got lost on the sea long ago

We waited all night on the shore

For he was a life saving captain you know

And never came back anymore

We can't earn our bread,we're to little she said

Jim's five and I'm only seven

Yes Daddy got lost on the sea long ago

And momma's up in heaven

The sextant came early to ring the church bell

He found them beneath the snow white

The angels made place for two orphans to dwell

In heaven with momma that night
