Blown off was my power ? and murdered my peace
It thundered in darkness: and if you had faith
To move even mountains

It profits you nothing
When stony and cold is the heart


New Year's Morning

Then misery taught me ? in midwinter's chill

That light without warming ? is torment of hell
To struggle I wanted
Towards love's very fountain

Myself I did wish to transform

New Year's Morning


Wher darkly from mountains ? a thundering sound
Ascends with much power ? from song of the old

Where tones fully bustle ? with roar over field
As torrents do weiter ? in dale of the cliffs
Just there felt belonging

My heart which when speaking
Like roar, was an echo in stone


New Year's Morning

Sing low over forest

Sing high over water:
God's peace over people of the north


New Year's Morning
New Year's Morning
