George Herbert - Clasping Of HandsGeorge Herbert - Clasping Of Hands
Work rating: Low


Lord, Thou art mine, and I am Thine,  If mine I am: and Thine much more  Then I or ought, or can be mine.  Yet to be Thine, doth me restore;  So that again I now am mine,          And with advantage mine the more.  Since this being mine, brings with it Thine,  And Thou with me dost Thee restore.   If I without Thee would be mine,    I neither should be mine nor Thine.          Lord, I am Thine, and Thou art mine:  So mine Thou art, that something more  I may presume Thee mine, then Thine,  For Thou didst suffer to restore  Not Thee, but me, and to be mine:        And with advantage mine the more,  Since Thou in death wast none of Thine,  Yet then as mine didst me restore.    O be mine still! still make me Thine;   Or rather make no Thine and Mine!
