But they have left an aching void the world can never fill. 3 Return, O holy Dove, return, sweet messenger of rest: I hate the sins that made thee mourn and drove thee from my breast. 4 The dearest idol I have known, whate'er that idol be, help me to tear it from thy throne and worship only thee. 5 So shall my walk be close with God, calm and serene my frame; so purer light shall mark the road that leads me to the Lamb.
