Then shall our joyful senses rove | H |
O'er the dear object of our love | I |

There shall we drink full draughts of bliss | J |
And pluck new life from heav'nly trees | K |
Yet now and then dear Lord bestow | D |

Send comforts down from thy right hand | D |
While we pass through this barren land | D |
And in thy temple let us see | L |
A glimpse of love a glimpse of thee | L |
