IN EXCELSIS THEMA

Voice that blesses, eyes that light,
Vision on the vestal height,
Bright One,
White One,
Lead aright!
Chaste as lily, mild as dove,
Brave as eagle, fair as love,
Fold us,
Hold us,
Lead above!
259

Mystic mountains all untrod
We shall pass, with patience shod;
Featly,
Sweetly,
Lead to God!
