George Herbert - Praise (II)George Herbert - Praise (II)
Work rating: Low


King of glorie, King of peace,                     I will love thee: And that love may never cease,                     I will move thee. Thou hast granted my request,                     Thou hast heard me: Thou didst note my working breast,                     Thou hast spar`d me. Wherefore with my utmost art                     I will sing thee, And the cream of all my heart                     I will bring thee. Though my sinnes against me cried,                     Thou didst cleare me; And alone when they replied,                     Thou didst heare me. Sev`n whole dayes, not one in seven,                     I will praise thee. In my heart, though not in heaven,                     I can raise thee. Thou grew`st soft and moist with tears,                     Thou dissentedst. Small it is, in this poore sort                     To enroll thee: Ev`n eternitie is too short                     To extoll thee.
