Rh For thou wert that to me, Mary!

That all on earth to me,

That I will be to thee, Mary!

In Heaven above to thee.

You led me through the meads, Mary!

The flower-enameled meads,

By brooks of rustling reeds, Mary!

By brooks of rustling reeds—

Where thou wert that to me, Mary!

That all on earth to me,

That I will be to thee, Mary!

In Heaven above to thee.

Wherever you then went, Mary!

No matter where you went—

I followed with content, Mary!

Because you were content.

For thou wert that to me, Mary!

That all on earth to me,

That I will be to thee, Mary!

In Heaven above to thee.

I recollect the morn, Mary!

The beautiful May-Morn,

Beside the Field of Corn, Mary!

The rustling reeds of Corn—

That thou wert that to me, Mary!

That all on earth to me,

That I will be to thee, Mary!

In Heaven above to thee.
