Sweet the songs of an­gel band.
Is a stone in the tem­ple we build.
Is a stone in the tem­ple we build.
Twinkle in the mid­night sky?
My God! my God! and can it be
And when a way­ward wind is borne,
I must meet each brok­en vow,

so light­ly

Jesu, born of Ma­ry maid,
Giving some heart joy or pain,
Giving some heart joy or pain,
O’er the mea­dows float­ing by?
And think no more of ev­il thoughts
To stir the gold­en ears of corn,
Every heart­ache I have caused,
