¶Lyrics / Text

Descend from heaven, celestial Dove, Inspire our souls with perfect love, And tune our feeble lays. Beam on our minds thy heavenly fire, And teach our bosoms to aspire To nobler songs of praise. Long did the world in darkness groan, How dim the light of reason shone, Before the morning rose; No calm content the soul could find; Discord, that vulture of the mind, Had banished soft repose.
