Unblam'd each prayer and longing guides To the one couch where Pain abides :He who is Love, and owns Love's Name, Is in His ocean springs the same

As in each little murmuring rill

O endless round of Nature's wheel

Oft have I heard mine elders say

Oft have I hid mine eyes

Oft have I read of sunny realms

Oft have I watched thy trances light

O grief for Angels to behold

O happy new-born babe, where art thou lying
O holy Cross, on thee to hang

O Lord, behold these babes are Thine

O Lord, give gracious humbleness of heart

Once more unto thine Altar, Lord, once more

Once in His Name Who made thee
