george dyson - come to me, god lyrics

Loading...

come to me god; but do not come
to me, as to the gen’rall doome
in power; or come thou in that state
when thou thy lawes didst promulgate
when as the mountain quak’d for dread
and sullen clouds bound up his head
for if thy thunder+claps i heare
i shall lesse swoone, then die for feare
speake thou of love and i’le reply
or sing of mercy, and i’le suit
to it my violl and my lute:
thus let thy lips but love distill
then come my god, and hap what will

in this world, the isle of drеams
while we sit by sorrow’s streams
tеars and terrors are our themes
reciting:

but when once from hence we fly
more and more approaching nigh
unto young eternity
uniting:

in that whiter island, where
things are evermore sincere;
candor here and l+ster there
delighting:
there, in calm and cooling sleep
we our eyes shall never steep
but eternal watch shall keep
attending

my soul, there is a country
far beyond the stars
where stands a wingèd sentry
all skilful in the wars:

there, above noise and danger
sweet peace sits crown’d with smiles
and one, born in a manger
commands the beauteous files

he is thy gracious friend
and ++ o my soul, awake! ++
did in pure love descend
to die here for thy sake

if thou canst go but thither
there grows the flower of peace
the rose that cannot wither
thy fortress and thy ease

leave then thy foolish ranges
for none can thee secure
but one who never changes
thy god, thy life, thy cure
