| All day the battle in the East | C |
| Thunders Dear Angels keep him well | D |
| His mother sits as to a feast | C |
| O heart of steel invulnerable | E |

| All night I sleep the young child's sleep | F |
| And waken to the robin's song | G |
| Blithe as the bird Dear Angels keep | F |
| My darling the sharp spears among | H |

| Ah now I know whose Arms enfold | I |
| I rest on such a mighty Heart | J |
| He hides my eyes lest they behold | I |
| In a most heavenly place apart | J |
| - | |
| Lord if this ease be but a lull | E |
| Ere the deep seas are over my head | K |
| I shall have had O Beautiful | E |
| This hour joy filled and comforted | L |
