Original text:

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.
