ON MUSIC.
But all thy noblest powers are joined
To emulate devotion's flame;
With strength and harmony combined,
Be this thy proper end and aim.
To emulate devotion's flame;
With strength and harmony combined,
Be this thy proper end and aim.
Seraphs golden harps employ
To celebrate Jehovah's fame,
While the harmonious choir on high
Of spirits blest resound his name.
To celebrate Jehovah's fame,
While the harmonious choir on high
Of spirits blest resound his name.
When, in a melodious song,
Earth echoes back the heavenly strains,
Angels the dying notes prolong,
Sweet music fills the ethereal plains.
Earth echoes back the heavenly strains,
Angels the dying notes prolong,
Sweet music fills the ethereal plains.
