Thy weary Spirit to the realms of rest

Chill the pure ___ of celestial life

Raise to their great Creator hymns of joy

Perhaps for years the adverse __ of life
Yet should we suffer pain or bliss enjoy
Till time shall lay us with the silent dead
The sweet remembrance of thy genuine worth
Shall fill our bosoms with a pensive joy.
