The fields are wet with diamond dew;

The worlds awake to cry

As He goes meekly by.

Come, let thy voice be one with theirs,

Shout with their shout of praise;

See how the giant sun soars up,

Great lord of years and days!

So let the love of Jesus come

And set thy soul ablaze.

The God who gave all worlds that are,

And all that are to be.
