lirik lagu richard mitchley - george herbert - faith

lord, how couldst thou so much appease
thy wrath for sinne as, when mans sight was dimme
and could see little, to regard his ease
and bring by faith all things to him?

hungrie i was, and had no meat:
i did conceit a most delicious feast;
i had it straight, and did as truly eat
as ever did a welcome guest

there is a rare outlandish root
which when i could not get, i thought it here:
that apprehension cur’d so well my foot
that i can walk to heav’n well neare

i owed thousands and much more:
i did beleeve that i did nothing owe
and liv’d accordingly; my creditor
beleeves so too, and lets me go

faith makes me any thing, or all
that i beleeve is in the sacred storie:
and where sinne placeth me in adams fall
faith sets me higher in his glorie

if i go lower in the book
what can be lower then the common manger?
faith puts me there with him, who sweetly took
our flesh and frailtie, death and danger
if blisse had lein in art or strength
none but the wise or strong had gained it:
where now by faith all arms are of a length;
one size doth all conditions fit

a peasant may beleeve as much
as a great clerk, and reach the highest stature
thus dost thou make proud knowledge bend & crouch
while grace fills up uneven nature

when creatures had no reall light
inherent in them, thou didst make the sunne
impute a l~stre, and allow them bright;
and in this shew, what christ hath done

that which before was darkned clean
with bushie groves, pr~cking the lookers eie
vanisht away, when faith did change the scene:
and then appear’d a glorious skie

what though my bodie runne to dust?
faith cleaves unto it, counting evr’y grain
with an exact and most particular trust
reserving all for flesh again
