By George Herbert (15931633)The Temper
HOW should I praise Thee, Lord! how should my rhymes | |
Gladly engrave thy love in steel, | |
If what my soul doth feel sometimes, | |
My soul might ever feel! | |
Whether I fly with angels, fall with dust, | 5 |
Thy hands made both, and I am there: | |
Thy power and love, my love and trust | |
Make one place everywhere. | |
