And the mould of His hand | B |
That you shook 'neath His stroke | C |
That you trembled and broke | C |
To this beautiful land | B |

Here He loosed from His hold | D |
A brown tumult of wings | E |
Till the wind on the sea | F |

Of an island that sings | E |

He made you all fair | G |
You in purple and gold | D |
You in silver and green | H |

Without love can behold | D |

In the path of the past | J |
With the white breath of flowers | K |
With the best of God's hours | K |
I have left you at last | J |
