lirik lagu william blake - i rose up at the dawn of day
i rose up at the dawn of day–
`get thee away! get thee away!
pray’st thou for riches? away! away!
this is the throne of mammon grey.’
said i: this, sure, is very odd;
i took it to be the throne of god
for everything besides i have:
it is only for riches that i can crave
i have mental joy, and mental health
and mental friends, and mental wealth;
i’ve a wife i love, and that loves me;
i’ve all but riches bodily
i am in god’s presence night and day
and he never turns his face away;
the accuser of sins by my side doth stand
and he holds my money-bag in his hand
for my worldly things god makes him pay
and he’d pay for more if to him i would pray;
and so you may do the worst you can do;
be -ssur’d, mr. devil, i won’t pray to you
then if for riches i must not pray
god knows, i little of prayers need say;
so, as a church is known by its steeple
if i pray it must be for other people
he says, if i do not worship him for a god
i shall eat co-rs-r food, and go worse shod;
so, as i don’t value such things as these
you must do, mr. devil, just as god please
