Blissful dreams by William H Pontius — Lyrics
Blissful dreams come stealing o’er me,
Bringing happy scenes gone by;
Where each day new pleasure’s bringing,
Left at heart no cause for sigh.
Home of peace! I see thy portals,
Hear the voices dear to me,–
Grasp the hands of pure affection,
And the glance of rapture see.

About Blissful dreams
This is a secular TTBB setting of an English text that evokes a longing for blissful dreams and cherished memories. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a peaceful home, the comfort of loved ones' voices and affection, and the hope of reunion. Even when daily life brings care, the vision of these happy scenes offers solace and anticipation of a future where separation is no more. The music likely aims to capture this tender, wistful, and ultimately hopeful sentiment, making it a poignant choice for a men's chorus.
