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
i Te Deum Te Deum laudamus iA
-
IIA
If earthly dreams be touched with gleamsI
Of Paradisal airJ
Some wings perchance of earth may glanceK
Around our slumbers thereJ
Some breaths of may might drift our wayL
With scents of leaf and loamM
Some whistling bird at dawn be heardN
From those old woods of homeM
Hark That's the thrushF
With speckled breastG
From yon white bushH
Chaunting his bestG
i Te Deum Te Deum laudamus iA
-
IIIA
No King or priest shall mar my feastO
Where'er my soul may rangeP
I have no fear of heaven's good cheerQ
Unless our Master changeP
But when death's night is dying awayL
If I might choose my blissR
My love should say at break of dayL
With her first waking kissR
Hark That's the thrushF
With speckled breastG
From yon white bushH
Chaunting his bestG
i Te Deum Te Deum laudamus iA
