Great Mover of all hearts,
Whose hand
Doth all the secret
springs command
Of human thought and will,
Thou, since the world
was made, dost bless
Thy saints with fruits of holiness,
Their order to fulfill.
Faith, hope, and love
here weave one chain;
But love alone shall then remain
When this short day is gone:
O Love, O Truth, O endless Light,
When shall we see
Thy Sabbath bright
With all our labors done?
We sow ’mid perils
here and tears;
There the glad hand
the harvest bears,
Which here in grief hath sown:
Great Three in One,
the increase give;
Thy gifts of grace, by which we live,
With heavenly glory crown.
