Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFGF HIHJ ABAB

Be with us by day by nightA
O lover O friendB
Hold before us thy lightA
Unto the endB
-
See all these children of oursC
Starved and ill cladD
Speak to thy heart's lily flowersC
And make them gladD
-
Our wives and daughters are hereE
Knowing wrong and shame's touchF
Bid them be of good cheerG
Who have loved muchF
-
And we we are robbed and oppressedH
Even as thine wereI
Tell us of comfort and restH
Banish despairJ
-
Be with us by day by nightA
O lover O friendB
Hold before us thy lightA
Unto the endB
