Sheet music
- 1Hark! the vesper hymn is stealingO’er the waters soft and clear;Nearer yet and nearer pealing,Now it bursts upon the ear:Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate, Amen.
- 2Now like moon-light waves retreating,To the shore it dies along;Now like angry surges meeting,Breaks the mingled tide of song:Jubilate! Jubilate! Jubilate, Amen.
