jo wyatt - anne bronte - despondency lyrics
i have gone backward in the work
the labour has not sped;
drowsey and dark my spirit lies
heavy and dull as lead
how can i rouse my sinking soul
from such a lethargy?
how can i break these iron chains
and set my spirit free?
there have been times when i have mourned
in angruish o’er the past
and raised my suppliant hands on high
while tears fell thick and fast;
and prayed to have my sins forgiven
with such a fervent zeal
an earnest grief, a strong desire
as now i cannot feel
and vowed to trample on my sins
and called on hеaven to aid
my spirit in her firm resolvеs
and hear the vows i made
and i have felt so full of love
so strong in spirit then
as if my heart would never cool
or wander back again
and yet, alas! how many times
my feet have gone astray!
how oft have i forgot my god!
have greatly fallen away!
my sins increase, my love grows cold
and hope within me dies:
even faith itself is wavering now;
oh, how shall i arise?
i cannot weep, but i can pray
then let me not despair;
lord jesus, save me, lest i die;
christ, hear my humble prayer!
