Tune Abbey Lloyd 119 Psalm
1 a How bright these glorious spirits shine
Whence all there bright array
How came they to the blissful seats
Of everlasting day
2 Lo these are they form suffering great
Who came to relems of fight
And in the blood of christ have washed
Thare robes which shine so bright
3 His presents fills each hert with Joy
Tunes every voice to sing
By day by night the sacred courts
While glad Hosannas ring
Hungry and thurst after no more
Nor suns with schorching ray
God is there sun whose cheering beems
Diffused etarnal day
When snows desend and robe the fields
In winter s bright array
Touched by thy sun the luster fades
And weepps itself away
When spring appears when vilants blow
And sheds a rich perfume
How soon thy fragrance breathes its last
How short lived is the bloom
Fresh in the morn the sumer rose
Hangs with ring ere tis noon
We scarce envy the balmy gift
But mourn the plesure gon
With gilding fire an evening stare
Streaks the Atumnal skies
Shook from the atumal it darts away
And in an instant dies
