Lyics

Blest are the sons of peace

Whose hearts and hopes are one:

Whose kind designs to serve and please

Through all their actions run.



Blest is the pious house

Where zeal and friendship meet;

Their songs of praise, their mingled vows,

Make their communion sweet.



Thus on the heavenly hills

The saints are blest above,

Where joy, like morning dew, distills,

And all the air is love.
