3 By the bands of Affection united in love
As Saints let us live, as Saints let us prove
Remembering for each other unceasing to pray
Night after night and day after day

4 Evening and morning I'll think of thee
Susan though Journeying on land or the Sea
Yea night after night and day after day
My thoughts o'er the deep to Susan will stray

New York Jan 9^th 1842 L. D. Barnes

1 When I bade my home farewell
On Brittons shore far hence to dwell
When I watched by evening light
My native shores fade from my sight
O! Susan then I thought of thee

2. When I ploughed the raging sea
whose Billows rolled continually
When on high our ship was bourn
Or fiercely driven by winters storm
When roaring surges dashed oer me
O Susan then I thought of thee

3 When I gazed with eager eyes
On Britons shores before me rise
I viewed her mountains capt'd with snow
While chilling winds did round me blow
Till late our haven hove in view
O Susan then I thought of you

4^th When on Europes shores I stood
And gazed far oer old oceans flood
I thought of all I'd left behind
My Parents dear And friends so kind
