AUDUBON
John James Audubon, you loved the birds;
You their wonderful music heard;
Your soul was stirred with their sweet song;
You labored for them your life long.
You did not live in vain: you spent
Life revealing the message sent
In throats of birds, that stir within
Nearness to God, loathing for sin.
For who can hear the wild bird's trill
Without a thought of God's great will?
You their wonderful music heard;
Your soul was stirred with their sweet song;
You labored for them your life long.
You did not live in vain: you spent
Life revealing the message sent
In throats of birds, that stir within
Nearness to God, loathing for sin.
For who can hear the wild bird's trill
Without a thought of God's great will?
