I will not depart

 What love is 
I knew not till I felt Christ's breath on me.
Dead I was but knew not 
Until I was made alive.
All mankind walks in a grave
Until the Grace of God
Makes them awake,
And see Eden for what it is 
That God is Eden and not the splendour of the scene.
O, I am poor but God loves the poor,
O, to be meek and as such 
Christ will rock me to sleep on a stormy sea.
The devil keeps an alert eye on me
Because I pray and for every inch
I say may God be praised,
And sweet words, but from Christ, I will not depart
For no one has the words of eternal Life!

O, Lord of mercy

 O, Lord of mercy Mercy me in my distress! My heart has gone far from you And your light of peace Has escaped my soul! O, bitter is the gall...
