<poem>
How oft, instinct with warmth divine,
Thy threshold have I trod!
How loved the courts, whose walls enshrine
The glory of my God!


How oft, instinct with warmth divine,<br>
O let me not, the vengeance share,
thy threshold have I trod!<br>
That waits the guilty tribe,
How loved the courts,<br>
Whose murderous hands each mischief dare,
whose walls enshrine the glory of my God!
And grasp the offered bribe.


O let me not, the vengeance share,<br>
But pour, O pour, while thus I thread,
that waits the guilty tribe,<br>
The path by Thee prepared,
whose murderous hands each mischief dare,<br>
Thy beams of mercy on my head,
and grasp the offered bribe.
And round me plant a guard.


But pour, O pour, while thus I thread,<br>
Thou, Lord, my steps hast fixed aright,
the path by Thee prepared,<br>
And pleased shalt hear my tongue
thy beams of mercy on my head,<br>
With Israel's thankful sons unite
and round me plant a guard.
To form the festal song.

Thou, Lord, my steps hast fixed aright,<br>
and pleased shalt hear my tongue<br>
with Israel's thankful sons unite<br>
to form the festal song.

How oft, instinct with warmth divine,
Thy threshold have I trod!
How loved the courts, whose walls enshrine
The glory of my God!

O let me not, the vengeance share,
That waits the guilty tribe,
Whose murderous hands each mischief dare,
And grasp the offered bribe.

But pour, O pour, while thus I thread,
The path by Thee prepared,
Thy beams of mercy on my head,
And round me plant a guard.

Thou, Lord, my steps hast fixed aright,
And pleased shalt hear my tongue
With Israel's thankful sons unite
To form the festal song.
