LORD OF THE HEARTS OF MEN

1.   Lord of the hearts of men, Thou hast vouchsafed to bless, From age to age, Thy chosen saints with fruits of holiness.

2.   Here faith, and hope, and love reign in sweet bond allied; There, when this Sabbath day is o’er, shall love alone abide.

3.   O Love, O truth, O light! Truth never to decay! O rest from thousand labours past! O endless Sabbath day!

4.   Here, amid cares and tears, bearing the seed we come; There, with rejoicing hearts, we bring our harvest burdens home.

5.   Give, mighty Lord divine, the fruits Thyself dost love; Soon shalt Thou, from Thy judgment seat, crown Thine own gifts above.
