robert herrick - litany to the holy spirit lyrics

Loading...

in the hour of my distress
when temptations me oppress
and when i my sins confess
sweet spirit, comfort me!

when i lie within my bed
sick in heart and sick in head
and with doubts discomforted
sweet spirit, comfort me!

when the house doth sigh and weep
and the world is drown’d in sleep
yet mine eyes the watch do keep
sweet spirit, comfort me!

when the passing bell doth toll
and the furies in a shoal
come to fright a parting soul
sweet spirit, comfort me!

when the tapers now burn blue
and the comforters are few
and that number morе than true
sweet spirit, comfort me!

when thе priest his last hath pray’d
and i nod to what is said
’cause my speech is now decay’d
sweet spirit, comfort me!
when, god knows, i’m toss’d about
either with despair or doubt;
yet before the glass be out
sweet spirit, comfort me!

when the tempter me pursu’th
with the sins of all my youth
and half d+mns me with untruth
sweet spirit, comfort me!

when the flames and h+llish cries
fright mine ears and fright mine eyes
and all terrors me surprise
sweet spirit, comfort me!

when the judgment is reveal’d
and that open’d which was seal’d
when to thee i have appeal’d
sweet spirit, comfort me!
