All na­ture feels at­tract­ive power,
A strong, em­brac­ing force;
The drops that spar­kle in the show­er,
The pla­nets in their course.

In this fine, sym­pa­the­tic chain
All crea­tures bear a part;
Their ev­ery plea­sure, ev­ery pain,
Linked to a feel­ing heart.

More per­fect bond, the Chris­tian plan
Attaches soul to soul;
Our neigh­bor is the suf­fer­ing man
Thou at the farth­est pole.

To earth be­low, from Hea­ven above,
The faith in Christ pro­fessed
More clear re­veals that God is love,
And whom He loves is blest.
