The Great VoicesCharles Timothy Brooks (18131883)
A
From the mountains again to the sea;
A call from the deep to the fountains:
O spirit! be glad and be free!
And the torrents repeat the glad song
As they leap from the breast of the mountains:
O spirit! be free and be strong!
Of praise as the spirit sweeps by;
With the voice like the murmur of ocean
To the soul of the listener they cry.
With joy reverential and free;
Contented and calm as the mountains,
And deep as the woods and the sea.
