IA
If souls could sing to heaven's high KingB
As blackbirds pipe on earthC
How those delicious courts would ringB
With gusts of lovely mirthC
What white robed throng could lift a songD
So mellow with righteous gleeE
As this brown bird that all day longD
Delights my hawthorn treeE
Hark That's the thrushF
With speckled breastG
From yon white bushH
Chaunting his bestG
Te Deum Te Deum laudamusI
-
IIA
If earthly dreams be touched with gleamsI
Of Paradisal airJ
Some wings perchance of earth may glanceI
Around our slumbers thereJ
Some breaths of may might drift our wayK
With scents of leaf and loamL
Some whistling bird at dawn be heardM
From those old woods of homeL
Hark That's the thrushF
With speckled breastG
From yon white bushH
Chaunting his bestG
Te Deum Te Deum laudamusI
-
IIIA
No King or priest shall mar my feastN
Where'er my soul may rangeO
I have no fear of heaven's good cheerP
Unless our Master changeO
But when death's night is dying awayK
If I might choose my blissI
My love should say at break of dayK
With her first waking kissI
Hark That's the thrushF
With speckled breastG
From yon white bushH
Chaunting his bestG
Te Deum Te Deum laudamusI
