What wondrous love is this, O my soul, O my soul!
What wondrous love is this, O my soul!
What wondrous love is this, that knows no prejudice,
But seeks an earthly bliss for all souls, for all souls,
Yet seeks an earthly bliss for all souls.
Tho' bigots may assail, O my soul, O my soul!
Tho' bigots may assail, O my soul!
Tho' bigots may assail, 'twill be to no avail,
But truth will yet prevail in my soul, in my soul,
The truth will yet prevail in my soul.
When I am sinking down, sinking down, sinking down,
When I am sinking down, sinking down.
When I am sinking down, I'll not in silence drown,
Yet speak tho' tyrants frown, for my soul, for my soul,
Yet speak tho' tyrants frown, for my soul!
When every one is free, we'll sing on, we'll sing on,
When every one is free, we'll sing on.
When every one is free, we'll rise and joyful be,
And through eternity, we'll sing on, we'll sing on,
And through eternity, we'll sing on!
