lirik lagu charles villiers stanford - strong son of god

Loading...

strong son of god, immortal love
whom we, that have not seen thy face
by faith, and faith alone, embrace
believing where we cannot prove;

thine are these orbs of light and shade;
thou madest life in man and brute;
thou madest death; and lo, thy foot
is on the skull which thou hast made

thou wilt not leave us in the dust:
thou madest man, he knows not why
he thinks he was not made to die;
and thou hast made him: thou art just

thou seemest human and divine
the highest, holiest manhood, thou:
our wills are ours, we know not how;
our wills are ours, to make them thine

our little systems have their day;
they have their day and cease to be:
they are but broken lights of thee
and thou, o lord, art more than they

we have but faith: we cannot know;
for knowledge is of things we see;
and yet we trust it comes from thee
a beam in darkness: let it grow
let knowledge grow from more to more
but more of reverence in us dwell;
that mind and soul, according well
may make one music as before

but vaster. we are fools and slight;
we mock thee when we do not fear:
but help thy foolish ones to bear;
help thy vain worlds to bear thy light

forgive what seem’d my sin in me;
what seem’d my worth since i began;
for merit lives from man to man
and not from man, o lord, to thee

forgive my grief for one removed
thy creature, whom i found so fair
i trust he lives in thee, and there
i find him worthier to be loved

forgive these wild and wandering cries
confusions of a wasted youth;
forgive them where they fail in truth
and in thy wisdom make me wise
