Text marked as lyrics
3 Grant them the joy which brightens earthly sorrow; grant them the peace which calms all earthly strife, and to life's day the glorious unknown morrow that dawns upon eternal love and life. 1 O perfect Love, all human thought transcending, lowly we kneel in prayer before your throne, that theirs may be the love which knows no ending, whom you forevermore unite in one. 2 O perfect Life, be now their full assurance of tender charity and steadfast faith, of patient hope and quiet, brave endurance, with childlike trust that fears no pain or death.
