¶Lyrics / Text

What voice of gladness, hark! in heaven is ringing? From the sad fields the lark is upward winging. High through the mournful mist that blots our day Their songs betray them soaring in the grey. See them! Nay, they in sunlight swim; Above the furthest stain of cloud attain; their hearts in music rain upon the plain. Sweet birds, far out of sight Your songs of pleasure Dome us with joy as bright As heaven's best azure.
