Spread thy white wings to the sunshine of love!

Come while our voices are blended in song,

Fly to our ark like the storm-beaten dove,—

Fly to our ark on the wings of the dove,

Speed o'er the far-sounding billows of song,

Crowned with the olive-leaf garland of love;

Angel of peace, thou hast waited too long!
Brothers we meet on this altar of thine,

Mingling the gifts we have gathered for thee;

Sweet with the odors of myrtle and pine,

Breeze of the prairie and breath of the sea,—

Meadow and mountain and forest and sea;

Sweet is the fragrance of myrtle and pine,

Sweeter the incense we offer to thee,

Brothers once more round this altar of thine!
Angels of Bethlehem, answer the strain!

Hark! a new birth-song is filling the sky!

Loud as the storm-wind that tumbles the main,

Bid the full breath of the organ reply,—

Loud let the tempest of voices reply;

Roll its long surge like the earthshaking main!

Swell the vast song till it mounts to the sky!

Angels of Bethlehem, echo the strain! Amen
