imogen holst - a hymne to christ lyrics

Loading...

in what torne ship soever i embarke
that ship shall be my embleme of thy arke;
what sea soever swallow mee, that flood
shall be to mee an embleme of thy blood;
though thou with clouds of anger do disguise
thy face; yet through that maske i know those eyes
which, though they turne away sometimes
they never will despise

i sacrifice this iland unto thee
and all whom i lov’d there, and who lov’d mee;
when i have put our seas twixt them and mee
put thou thy sea betwixt my sinnes and thee
as the trees sap doth seeke the root below
in winter, in my winter now i goe
where none but thee, th’eternall root
of true love i may know
