Lyics

Lo!  The heav'ns are breaking,

Pure and bright above;

Life and light awaking,

Murmur "God is love!"

"God is love."



Round yon pineclad mountain

Flows a golden flood:

Hear the sparkling fountain

Whisper "God is good!"



See the streamlet bounding

Through the vale and wood,

Hear its ripples sounding,

Murmur "God is good!"



Music now is rising

Through the shady grove,

Feather'd songsters singing,

Warble "God is love!"



Wake my heart, and springing

Spread thy wings abroad,

Soaring still and singing,

God is ever good!
