Rhyme Scheme: AABB CDEE FCGG HHIILike morning when her early breeze | A |
Breaks up the surface of the seas | A |
That in those furrows dark with night | B |
Her hand may sow the seeds of light | B |
- | |
Thy Grace can send its breathings o'er | C |
The Spirit dark and lost before | D |
And freshening all its depths prepare | E |
For Truth divine to enter there | E |
- | |
Till David touched his sacred lyre | F |
In silence lay the unbreathing wire | C |
But when he swept its chords along | G |
Even Angels stooped to hear that song | G |
- | |
So sleeps the soul till Thou oh LORD | H |
Shalt deign to touch its lifeless chord | H |
Till waked by Thee its breath shall rise | I |
In music worthy of the skies | I |
