-63_Since Thou Hast Called Me.htm

 

Since thou hast called me*

 

Since thou hast called me, see that I

Go not from thee, — surrounding me stand.

In thy own love’s diviner way

Make me too love thee without end.
 

My fathomless blackness hast thou cleft

With thy infinity of light,

Then waken in my mortal voice

Thy music of illumined sight.
 

Make me thy eternal journey’s mate,

Tying my life around thy feet.

Let thy own hand my boat unmoor,

Sailing the world thy self to meet.
 

Fill full of thee my day and night,

Let all my being mingle with thine,

And every tremor of my soul

Echo thy Flute of flutes divine.

 

Come in thy chariot. Charioteer,

And drive me whither thou wouldst go.

All within me and all my acts

Make luminous with surrender’s glow.

 

* Sahana
