Author: Rob't Morris, L. L. D. Hymnal: Minnetonka Songs #116 (1879) First Line: Each cooing dove, and sighing bough Refrain First Line: O Galilee, sweet Galilee Lyrics: 1 Each cooing dove, and sighing bough,
That makes the eve so blest to me,
Has something far diviner now,
It bears me back to Galilee.
Chorus:
O Galilee, sweet Galilee,
Where Jesus loved so much to be;
O Galilee, blue Galilee,
Come, sing thy song again to me.
2 Each flow'ry glen, and mossy dell,
Where happy birds in song agree,
Thro' sunny morn the praises tell
Of sights and sounds in Galilee. [Chorus]
3 And when I read the thrilling love
Of him who walked upon the sea,
I long, oh, how I long once more
To follow him in Galilee. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Each cooing dove, and sighing bough]
