Thy tribute wave deliver | B |
No more by thee my steps shall be | A |
For ever and for ever | B |
- | |
Flow softly flow by lawn and lea | A |
A rivulet then a river | B |
Nowhere by thee my steps shall be | A |
For ever and for ever | B |

But here will sigh thine alder tree | A |
And here thine aspen shiver | B |
And here by thee will hum the bee | A |
For ever and for ever | B |

A thousand suns will stream on thee | A |
A thousand moons will quiver | B |
But not by thee my steps shall be | A |
For ever and for ever | B |
