| It is the joy it is the zest of life | B |
| To know that Death ungainly to the vile | C |
| Is not a traitor with a reckless knife | B |
| And not a serpent with a look of guile | C |
| But one who greets us with a seraph's smile | C |
| An angel guest to tend us after strife | B |
| And keep us true to God when fears are rife | B |
| And sceptic thought would daunt us or defile | C |
| He walks the world as one empower'd to fill | C |
| The fields of space for Father and for Son | D |
| He is our friend though morbidly we shun | D |
| His tender touch a cure for every ill | C |
| He is the king of peace when all is done | D |
| Earth and the air are moulded to his will | C |
