  1. We love all the earthly stock below,
    Cherished by lusty eyes;
    We love to tarry here on earth,
    Sav’ring it’s deadly chills.

  2. Why covey we in bitter chase?
    When sacred home exists;
    There shall no sin or evil found
    No peril there abide.

  3. O! what a lux’ry there abound,
    There, all our wish to know!
    The joy, the love and charity,
    Abundantly is found.

  4. The threat of death and deadly pangs;
    Here on earth not in heaven;
    The sacred Saints in light array,
    In sweet immortal praise.

  5. The holy path of Christ to tread,
    Prepar’d abroad for us;
    Peaceful, blissful abode on high,
    The Sacred throne of God. Amen.
