O seeking Love, thy hurrying feet
go searching still to urge and call
the bad and good on ev’ry street
to fill thy boundless banquet hall.

drowned thine ancient, true and constant
melody,
Thy mighty hand did make a trumpet none
could silence or mistake;
thy living breath did blow for all the world to
hear, living and clear*
