Lyrics
Lord of the heart, look down upon our earthly pilgrimage,
Look down upon us where we walk from bright dawn to old age,
Give light not shed by any sun, Lord of the heart!
Not read on any page, Lord of the heart!

A bird of passage out of night
Flies in at a lighted door,
Flies through and on in its darkened flight,
And then is seen no more.

This is the life of men on earth:
Out of darkness we come at birth
Into a lamp-lit room and then,
Go forward into dark again
Go forward into dark again.
