| Color is nothing to this world 'tis I | B |
| That see it Farther I have found my soul | C |
| That trees are nothing to their fellow trees | D |
| It is but I that love their stateliness | D |
| And I that comforting my heart do sit | E |
| At noon beneath their shadow I will step | F |
| On the ledges of this world for it is mine | G |
| But the other world ye wot of shall go too | A |
| I will carry it in my bosom O my world | H |
| That was not built with clay | I |
| Consider it | E |
| This outer world we tread on as a harp | J |
| A gracious instrument on whose fair strings | D |
| We learn those airs we shall be set to play | I |
| When mortal hours are ended Let the wings | D |
| Man of thy spirit move on it as wind | K |
| And draw forth melody Why shouldst thou yet | L |
| Lie grovelling More is won than e'er was lost | M |
| Inherit Let thy day be to thy night | N |
| A teller of good tidings Let thy praise | D |
| Go up as birds go up that when they wake | O |
| Shake off the dew and soar | P |
| So take Joy home | Q |
| And make a place in thy great heart for her | R |
| And give her time to grow and cherish her | R |
| Then will she come and oft will sing to thee | S |
| When thou art working in the furrows ay | I |
| Or weeding in the sacred hour of dawn | T |
| It is a comely fashion to be glad | U |
| Joy is the grace we say to God | V |
| Art tired | W |
| There is a rest remaining Hast thou sinned | X |
| There is a Sacrifice Lift up thy head | Y |
| The lovely world and the over world alike | Z |
| Ring with a song eterne a happy rede | Y |
| THY FATHER LOVES THEE | S |

| I | B |

| Yon moor d mackerel fleet | Y |
| Hangs thick as a swarm of bees | D |
| Or a clustering village street | Y |
| Foundationless built on the seas | D |
| - | |
| II | B |
| - | |
| The mariners ply their craft | Y |
| Each set in his castle frail | A2 |
| His care is all for the draught | Y |
| And he dries the rain beaten sail | A2 |
| - | |
| III | B |
| - | |
| For rain came down in the night | Y |
| And thunder muttered full oft | Y |
| But now the azure is bright | Y |
| And hawks are wheeling aloft | Y |
| - | |
| IV | B2 |
| - | |
| I take the land to my breast | Y |
| In her coat with daisies fine | G |
| For me are the hills in their best | Y |
| And all that's made is mine | G |
| - | |
| V | B2 |
| - | |
| Sing high Though the red sun dip | C2 |
| There yet is a day for me | B2 |
| Nor youth I count for a ship | C2 |
| That long ago foundered at sea | B2 |
| - | |
| VI | B2 |
| - | |
| Did the lost love die and depart | Y |
| Many times since we have met | Y |
| For I hold the years in my heart | Y |
| And all that was is yet | Y |
| - | |
| VII | B2 |
| - | |
| I grant to the king his reign | D2 |
| Let us yield him homage due | Y |
| But over the lands there are twain | D2 |
| O king I must rule as you | Y |
| - | |
| VIII | B2 |
| - | |
| I grant to the wise his meed | Y |
| But his yoke I will not brook | E2 |
| For God taught ME to read | Y |
| He lent me the world for a book | E2 |
