One day there entered at my chamber door.
One holy church of God appears..
One sweetly solemn thought..
Only for these I pray....

Sorrow has a harp of seven strings..

Sorrows humanize our race.....
Souls of men! why will ye scatter..

Surrounded by unnumbered Foes.
Sweet day, so cool, so calm, so bright!.
Sweet is the time for joyous folk..
