christopher hassall - milton, thou shouldst be living at this hour lyrics
Loading...
milton! thou shouldst be living at this hour:
england hath need of thee: she is a fen
of stagnant waters: altar, sword, and pen
fireside, the heroic wealth of hall and bower
have forfeited their ancient english dower
of inward happiness. we are selfish men;
oh! raise us up, return to us again;
and give us manners, virtue, freedom, power
thy soul was like a star, and dwelt apart:
thou hadst a voice whose sound was like the sea:
pure as the naked heavens, majestic, free
so didst thou travel on life’s common way
in cheerful godliness; and yet thy heart
the lowliest duties on herself did lay
