Tune: | CALM |
Composer: | Dr. J. B. Dykes, 1823-1876 |
1 O Life that maketh all things new
The blooming earth, the thoughts of men!
Our pilgrim feet, wet with Thy dew,
In gladness hither turn again.
2 From hand to hand the greeting flows,
From eye to eye the signals run,
From heart to heart the bright hope glows;
The seekers of the Light are one.
3 One in the freedom of the truth,
One in the joy of paths untrod,
One in the soul's perennial youth,
One in the larger thought of God;
4 The freer step, the fuller breath,
The wide horizon's grander view,
The sense of life that knows no death
The Life that maketh all things new.
