His dreams, devotions, deeds, his all, O soul,

Or great or small beneath divine control.

The gracious seasons roll in mighty numbers;

The snow, the sleet but falls, that He who slumbers

Are music bound, if we but see afar;

From heart of heav’n to heart of hell—ah yes;

The prince of darkness is beset, not less—
