ralph vaughan williams - come down o love divine lyrics

Loading...

come down, o love divine
seek thou this soul of mine
and visit it with thine own ardour glowing;
o comforter, draw near
within my heart appear
and kindle it, thy holy flame bestowing

o let it freely burn
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming:
and let thy glorious light
shine ever on my sight
and clothe me round, the while my path illuming

let holy charity
mine outward vesture be
and lowliness become my inner clothing
true lowliness of heart
which takes the humbler part
and o’er its own shortcomings weeps with loathing

and so the yearning strong
with which thе soul will long
shall far outpass the power of human telling;
for nonе can guess its grace
till he become the place
wherein the holy spirit makes his dwelling
