To be sung only at the end of the 4th stanza. Wake and sing! Brother,sing! Wake and sing! Brother, sing! # Wake and sing! Brother, sing! Wake and sing! Brother,sing! Grief and fear by earth are given, Good alone is sent by heaven. 3 Wake and sing! Brother,sing! Though our days with sorrow, Shrouded are, and care, Tears of sorrow streaming, Dark and cold the air. Wake and sing! Brother,sing! Let our joyous song be ringing, Care will vanish while we're singing 4 Wake and sing! Brother,sing! Friendship, love and truth; Then, when time shall perish, Bright shall be our youth. Wake and sing! Brother,sing! Heavenly care is watching o'er us Sing aloud in joyful chorus But Mary, I hope, will soon own her past errors, And then she'll be happy again. RHYTHMICS.-DIVISION OF TIME. COUNTING AND BEATING. § 1.
