Te Deum Laudamus Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEEE FFGH EEHH IIEE| Along the floors of heaven the music rolls | A |
| Fills the vast dome and lifts our fainting souls | A |
| Praise God Oh praise Him all created things | B |
| Praise Him the Lord of lords the King of kings | B |
| - | |
| Slow pulses coursing darkly underground | C |
| Leap up in leaf and blossom at the sound | C |
| Shake out glad pennons in remotest ways | D |
| And with a thousand voices utter praise | D |
| - | |
| Along the southern hills the verdure creeps | E |
| And faint green foliage clothes the craggy steeps | E |
| Where in the sunshine lie reposing herds | E |
| Whose gladness has no need of spoken words | E |
| - | |
| In the deep woods there is a voice which saith | F |
| The Lord is risen there shall be no more death | F |
| Listen Oh Man and thy dull ears shall hear | G |
| The Easter Anthem of the awakened year | H |
| - | |
| Past isles of emerald moss the brooklet flows | E |
| Melodious and rejoicing as it goes | E |
| Past drooping ferns and through the mazy whir | H |
| Of insect wings of gold and gossamer | H |
| - | |
| Praise God they whisper softly each to each | I |
| Waves have a voice and trees and stones a speech | I |
| Day unto day the chant of birds and breeze | E |
| And man alone is dumb nor hears nor sees | E |
