<poem>
Flee as a bird to your mountain,
Flee as a bird to your mountain,
Thou who art weary of sin.
Thou who art weary of sin.
Line 38: Line 33:
Haste, then, the hours are flying,
Haste, then, the hours are flying,
Spend not the moments in sighing,
Spend not the moments in sighing,
Cease from your sorrow and crying,  
Cease from your sorrow and crying,
The Saviour will wipe ev'ry tear.
The Saviour will wipe ev'ry tear.}}

Flee as a bird to your mountain,
Thou who art weary of sin.
Go to the clear flowing fountain,
Where you may wash and be clean.
Fly, for th'avenger is near thee;
Call and the Saviour will hear thee.
He on his bosom will bear thee,
O thou, who art weary of sin.

He will protect thee for ever,
Wipe ev'ry falling tear
He will forsake thee, O never
Sheltered so tenderly there;
Haste, then, the hours are flying,
Spend not the moments in sighing,
Cease from your sorrow and crying,
The Saviour will wipe ev'ry tear.
