john dowland - shall i sue, shall i seek for grace lyrics

Loading...

shall i sue, shall i seek for grace?
shall i pray shall i prove?
shall i strive to a heav’nly joy
with an earthly love?

shall i think that a bleeding heart
or a wounded eye
or a sigh can ascend the clouds
to attain so high?

silly wretch, forsake these dreams
of a vain desire
o bethink what high regard
holy hopes do require
favour is as fair as things are
treasure is not bought
favour is not won with words
nor the wish of a thought

justice gives each man his own
though my love be just
yet will not she pity my grief
therefore die i must

silly heart then yield to die
perish in despair
witness yet how fain i die
when i die for the fair
