Rhyme Scheme: AABCCDEEFFGHHGG AAIJKKLLCC AMAMMDNDGGOP| Go thou and seek the House of Prayer | A |
| I to the Woodlands wend and there | A |
| In lovely Nature see the GOD OF LOVE | B |
| The swelling organ's peal | C |
| Wakes not my soul to zeal | C |
| Like the wild music of the wind swept grove | D |
| The gorgeous altar and the mystic vest | E |
| Rouse not such ardor in my breast | E |
| As where the noon tide beam | F |
| Flash'd from the broken stream | F |
| Quick vibrates on the dazzled sight | G |
| Or where the cloud suspended rain | H |
| Sweeps in shadows o'er the plain | H |
| Or when reclining on the clift's huge height | G |
| I mark the billows burst in silver light | G |
| - | |
| Go thou and seek the House of Prayer | A |
| I to the Woodlands shall repair | A |
| Feed with all Natures charms mine eyes | I |
| And hear all Natures melodies | J |
| The primrose bank shall there dispense | K |
| Faint fragrance to the awaken'd sense | K |
| The morning beams that life and joy impart | L |
| Shall with their influence warm my heart | L |
| And the full tear that down my cheek will steal | C |
| Shall speak the prayer of praise I feel | C |
| - | |
| Go thou and seek the House of Prayer | A |
| I to the woodlands bend my way | M |
| And meet RELIGION there | A |
| She needs not haunt the high arch'd dome to pray | M |
| Where storied windows dim the doubtful day | M |
| With LIBERTY she loves to rove | D |
| Wide o'er the heathy hill or cowslip'd dale | N |
| Or seek the shelter of the embowering grove | D |
| Sweet are these scenes to her and when the night | G |
| Pours in the north her silver streams of light | G |
| She woos Reflexion in the silent gloom | O |
| And ponders on the world to come | P |
