A summer wind blows through the open porch	A
And 'neath the rustling eaves	B
A summer light of moonrise calm and pale	C
Shines through a vale of leaves	B
	-
The soft gusts bring a scent of summer flowers	D
Fresh with the falling dew	E
And round the doorway glimmering white as snow	F
The tender petals strew	E
	-
Clear through the silence from a reedy pool	G
The curlew's whistle thrills	H
A lonely mopoke sorrowfully cries	I
From the far folding hills	H
	-
O lovely night and yet so sad and strange	J
My fingers touch the key	K
And down the empty church my Christmas song	L
Goes ringing glad and free	K
	-
Each sweet note knocks at dreaming memory's door	M
And memory wakes in pain	N
The spectral faces she had turn'd away	O
Come crowding in again	P
	-
The air seems full of music all around	Q
I know not what I hear	R
The multitudinous echoes of the past	S
Or these few voices near	T
	-
Ah me the dim aisle vaguely widens out	U
I see me stand therein	V
A glory of grey sculpture takes the light	W
A winter morn brings in	V
	-
No more I smell the fragrant jessamine flowers	D
That flake a moonlit floor	M
The rustling night breeze and the open porch	A
I hear and see no more	M
Great solemn windows down a long long nave	X
Their shadow'd rainbows fling	Y
Dark Purbeck shafts with hoary capitals	Z
In carven archways spring	Y
	-
And overhead the throbbing organ waves	A2
Roll in one mighty sea	K
	-
Bearing the song the herald angels sang	B2
Of Christ's nativity	K
	-
Dear hands touch mine beneath the open book	C2
Sweet eyes look in my face	D2
They smile they melt in darkness I am snatch'd	E2
From my familiar place	D2
	-
The summer night wind blows upon my tears	F2
Its flowery scent is pain	N
O cold white day O noble minster when	P
May I come back again	P
	-
To hear the angels' anthem shake the air	G2
Where never discord jars	H2
The Christmas carols in the windy street	I2
Under the frosty stars	H2
	-
The dream like falling from the still grey skies	I
With falling flakes of snow	F
Of mellow chimes from old cathedral bells	J2
Solemn and sweet and slow	F
	-
To hear loved footsteps beating time with mine	K2
Along the churchyard path	L2
To see that ring of faces once again	P
Drawn round the blazing hearth	M2
	-
When may I come O Lord when may I go	F
Nay I must wait Thy will	N2
Give patience Lord and in Thine own best way	O
My hopes and prayers fulfil	N2
