Should break my laws abuse my grace | D |

Once have I sworn I need no more | K |
And pledged my holiness | L |
To seal the sacred promise sure | M |

The sun shall see his offspring rise | N |
And spread from sea to sea | O |
Long as he travels round the skies | N |

Sure as the moon that rules the night | Q |
His kingdom shall endure | M |
Till the fixed laws of shade and light | Q |
Shall be observed no more | K |
