Author: | George Herbert, 1593-1633 |
Tune: | THE CALL |
Composer: | Ralph Vaughan Williams, 1872-1958 |
1 Come, my way, my truth, my life:
such a way as gives us breath,
such a truth as ends all strife,
such a life as killeth death.
2 Come, my light, my feast, my strength:
such a light as shows a feast,
such a feast as mends in length,
such a strength as makes a guest.
3 Come, my joy, my love, my heart:
such a joy as none can move,
such a love as none can part,
such a heart as joys in love.
