¶Lyrics / Text

While I listen to thy voice, Chloris, I feel my life decay. That pow'rful noise Calls my fleeting soul away. Oh, suppress that magic sound Which destroys without a wound. Peace, Chloris, peace, or singing die, That together you and I To heav'n may go. For all we know Of what the blessed do above Is that they sing and love.
