Our hearts have burned with holy rapture,

We long to be absorbed in love:

Let us sing praises for what is given,

And trust in God for time to come;

Sure we shall find the way to heaven;

So farewell, brethren—we’re going home.

3 And as we go let us praise our Saviour,

And pray for those who spurn his grace,

Lest they should lose love’s richest treasure,

And ne’er enjoy his smiling face.
