Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
1. Our hearts are turning to our loved onesWho have left this life forlorn,For to receive the Father’s fulnessEv’ry soul must be reborn.Else when they rise, what shall they do?They must depend on me and youTo them baptize and realizeThe rites that make all old things new.
2. Taught by an angel, father AdamLearned to call upon the Son.Our mother Eve was also gladdenedAnd proclaimed the Holy One.Each like our parents must be savedTo rise in glory from the grave—To see God’s face, to him embraceIn likeness of his blessèd Son.
3. Having foreseen a great confusion,God restored a pow’r divine—A pow’r to banish all illusionAnd accomplish his design.The aching wounds of souls to stanch;Unending joy for root and branch!A pow’r to heal us and to seal usInto one eternal whole.
4. Shall not we labor with rejoicingTill God’s glory fills the earth?With anthems loud of praise, still voicingRichest blessings of rebirth.Let each of us now do our partTo lift each soul and weld each heart!House of the Lord, thy peace afford;In thee we’ll dwell forevermore.
