When first in ancient time from Jubal's tongue	A
The tuneful anthem filled the morning air	B
To sacred hymnings and elysian song	C
His music breathing sehll the minstrel woke	D
Devotion breathed aloud from every chord	E
The voice of praise was heard in every tone	F
And prayer and thanks to Him the Eternal One	G
To Him that with bright inspiration touched	H
The high and gifted lyre of heavenly song	C
And warmed the soul with new vitality	I
A stirring energy through Nature breathed	J
The voice of adoration from her broke	D
Swelling aloud in every breeze and heard	K
Long in the sullen waterfall what time	L
Soft Spring or hoary Autumn threw on earth	M
Its bloom or blighting when the summer smiled	N
Or winter o'er the year's sepulcher mourned	O
The Deity was there a nameless spirit	P
Moved in the breasts of men to do him homage	Q
And when the morning smiled or evening pale	R
Hung weeping o'er the melancholy urn	S
They came beneath the broad o'erarching trees	T
And in their tremulous shadow worshipped oft	U
Where pale the vine clung round their simple altars	V
And gray moss mantling hung Above was heard	K
The melody of winds breathed out as the green trees	T
Bowed to their quivering touch in living beauty	I
And birds sang forth their cheerful hymns Below	W
The bright and widely wandering rivulet	I
Struggled and gushed amongst the tangled roots	X
That choked its reedy fountain and dark rocks	Y
Worn smooth by the constant current Even there	B
The listless wave that stole with mellow voice	Z
Where reeds grew rank on the rushy fringed brink	A2
And the green sedge bent to the wandering wind	I
Sang with a cheerful song of sweet tranquillity	I
Men felt the heavenly influence and it stole	B2
Like balm into their hearts till all was peace	C2
And even the air they breathed the light they saw	D2
Became religion for the ethereal spirit	I
That to soft music wakes the chords of feeling	E2
And mellows everything to beauty moved	I
With cheering energy within their breasts	F2
And made all holy there for all was love	G2
The morning stars that sweetly sang together	H2
The moon that hung at night in the mid sky	I2
Dayspring and eventide and all the fair	B
And beautiful forms of nature had a voice	Z
Of eloquent worship Ocean with its tides	J2
Selling and deep where low the infant storm	K2
Hung on his dun dark cloud and heavily beat	I
The pulses of the sea sent forth a voice	Z
Of awful adoration to the spirit	I
That wrapt in darkness moved upon its face	L2
And when the bow of evening arched the east	I
Or in the moonlight pale the curling wave	M2
Kissed with a sweet embrace the sea worn beach	N2
And soft the song of winds came o'er the waters	V
The mingled melody of wind and wave	M2
Touched like a heavenly anthem on the ear	O2
For it arose a tuneful hymn of worship	P2
And have our hearts grown cold Are there on earth	M
No pure reflections caught from heavnly light	I
Have our mute lips no hymn our souls no song	C
Let him thatin the summer day of youth	Q2
Keeps pure the holy fount of youthful feeling	E2
And him that in the nightfall of his years	R2
Lies down in his last sleep and shuts in peace	C2
His dim pale eyes on life's short wayfaring	E2
Praise Him that rules the destiny of man	S2
