- 1Your harps, ye trembling saints,
- Down from the willows take;
- Loud to the praise of love Divine
- Bid every string awake.
- 2Though in a foreign land,
- We are not far from home;
- And nearer to our house above
- We every moment come.
- 3His grace will to the end
- Stronger and brighter shine;
- Nor present things, nor things to come,
- Shall quench the spark Divine.
- 4When we in darkness walk,
- Nor feel the heavenly flame,
- Then is the time to trust our God,
- And rest upon His Name.
- 5Soon shall our doubts and fears
- Subside at His control:
- His loving-kindness shall break through
- The midnight of the soul.
- 6Blest is the man, O God,
- That stays himself on Thee:
- Who wait for Thy salvation, Lord,
- Shall Thy salvation see.
- 7Amen.
