| In its due festive show | B |
| Reft of the sight of the High Priest | A |
| From whom its glories flow | B |
| - | |
| I hear the tuneful bells around | C |
| The bless d towers I see | D |
| A stranger on a foreign ground | C |
| They peal a fast for me | D |

| O Britons now so brave and high | E |
| How will ye weep the day | F |
| When Christ in judgment passes by | E |
| And calls the Bride away | F |

| Your Christmas then will lose its mirth | G |
| Your Easter lose its bloom | H |
| Abroad a scene of strife and dearth | G |
| Within a cheerless home | I |
