lirik lagu jo wyatt - anne bronte - last lines
a dreadful darkness closes in
on my bewildered mind;
o let me suffer and not sin
be tortured yet resigned
through all this world of whelming mist
still let me look to thee
and give me courage to resist
the tempter till he flee
weary i am — o give me strength
and leave me not to faint;
say thou wilt comfort me at legnth
and pity my complaint
i’ve begged to serve thee heart and soul
to sacrifice to thee
no n~ggard portion, but the whole
of my identity
i hoped amid the brave and strong
my portioned task might lie
to toil amid the labouring throng
with purpose pure and high
but thou hast fixed another part
and thou hast fixed it well;
i said so with my bleeding heart
when first the anguish fell
for thou hast taken my delight
and hope of life away
and bid me watch the painful night
and wait the weary day
the hope and delight were thine;
i bless thee for their loan;
i gave thee while i deemed them mine
too little thanks, i own
shall i with joy thy blessings share
and not endure their loss?
or hope the martyr’s crown to wear
and cast away the cross?
these weary hours will not be lost
these days of passive misery
these nights of darkness anguish tost
if i can fix my heart on thee
weak and weary though i lie
crushed with sorrow, worn with pain
still i may lift to heaven mine eye
and strive and labour not in vain
that inward strife against the sins
that ever wait on suffering;
to watch and strike where first begins
each ill that would corruption bring
that secret labour to sustain
with humble patience every blow
to gather fortitude from pain
and hope and holiness from woe
thus let me serve thee from my heart
whatever be my written fate
whether thus early to depart
or yet a while to wait
if thou shouldst bring me back to life
more humbled i should be;
more wise, more strengthened for the strife
more apt to lean on thee
should death be standing at the gate
thus should i keep my vow;
but, lord, whate’er my future fate
so let me serve thee now
