ned rorem - o deus, ego amo te lyrics

Loading...

o god, i love thee, i love thee —
not out of hope of heaven for me
nor fearing not to love and be
in the everlasting burning
thou, thou, my jesus, after me
didst reach thine arms out dying
for my sake sufferedst nails and lance,┬░
mocked and marred countenance
sorrows passing number
sweat and care and cumber
yea and death, and this for me
and thou couldst see me sinning:
then i, why should not i love thee
jesu so much in love with me?
not for heaven’s sake; not to be
out of h+ll by loving thee;
not for any gains i see;
but just the way that thou didst me
i do love and i will love thee:
what must i love thee, lord, for then? —
for being my king and god. amen
