Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCC DEDECCC FGFGBBB CHCHIIJ K

They are blind and they are deadA
We will wake them as we goB
There are words have not been saidA
There are sounds they do not knowB
We will pipe and we will singC
With the Music and the SpringC
Set their hearts a wonderingC
-
They are tired of what is oldD
We will give it voices newE
For the half hath not been toldD
Of the Beautiful and TrueE
Drowsy eyelids shut and sleepingC
Heavy eyes oppressed with weepingC
Flashes through the lashes leapingC
-
Ye that have a pleasant voiceF
Hither come without delayG
Ye will never have a choiceF
Like to that ye have to dayG
Round the wide world we will goB
Singing through the frost and snowB
Till the daisies are in blowB
-
Ye that cannot pipe or singC
Ye must also come with speedH
Ye must come and with you bringC
Weighty word and weightier deedH
Helping hands and loving eyesI
These will make them truly wiseI
Then will be our ParadiseJ
