Lyics

Unite, my roving thoughts, unite

In silence soft and sweet:

And thou, my soul, sit gently down

At thy great Sovereign's feet.



Jehovah's awful voice is heart,

Yet gladly I attend;

For lo!  The everlasting God

Proclaims himself my friend.



Harmonious accents to my soul

The sounds of peace convey;

The tempest at his word subsides,

And winds and seas obey.



By all its joys, I charge my heart,

To grieve his love no more;

But charmed by melody divine,

To give its follies o'er.
