Lyrics

The lone, wild bird in lofty flight

is still with thee, nor leaves thy sight.

And I am thine! I rest in thee.

Great spirit come and rest in me.

​

The ends of earth are in thy hand,

the sea’s dark deep and far-off land.

And I am thine! I rest in thee.

Great spirit come and rest in me.
