Lyics

There is a place where my hopes are staid;

My heart and my treasure are there;

Where verdure and blossoms never fade,

And fields are eternally fair.

That blissful place is my fatherland;

By faith its delights I explore;

Come, favour my flight, angelic band,

And waft me, in peace, to the shore.
