And my oh so fond
Obsession
For all I do
In this my
Confession
Make my desires
Be to thy glorious
Affections
Who looks long
With eyes of love
Upon my imperfections
Pursuing me
When I am full
Of discontent
Carry me
And fill me
For I am undone
Void of desires
Ere are passing
In thy presence
Erelasting the days
May be with hands
Raised to thee
My heart restore
Anew emplore
That thy life
May fill my veins
Pure thy joy
Restore
Prepare my mind
And fixed be
On thee
Repent and ere
Relent my will
Thy will be done
In me my heart
Now fill the more
To ponder
And adore
No more of me
Thy ways
For all that life
Shall give
Tis a gift
And oh to joy
This heart of mine
Employ divine
Thy light to shine
Stain the dark
With thy lark of love
And spark a flame
In me that in
The darkest shadows
Bright the broken
Hearted night
That once more
Dawn again
And conquer sin
And death shall be
No more
