"The Canadian Boat Song," Thomas Moore.
Jim Dixon posted the lyrics in thread 35398.

More than one Canadian Boat Song, but the Moore poem is closest to a hymn.
"We'll sing at St. Ann's our parting hymn."

As noted in the same thread, five pages of music were printed in The Odeon, 1837.
I will scan the music, if you would like a copy.
