Pray... such an act of faith.
For my sake didst thou fast
Sore love towards my leave,
Starved thee in vain.
For my sake did thou ache
Such anguish for a vague return
And for my sake didst thou give
Over precious life to the death...
Give unto me
Thou who gave thyself to me
Let thy blood wash away
The stains of my sins
Let the infamy hide
My rectitude
As my grief and disease increase
So surge thou thy guilt... to the death!
Mind the jury, great or small
To be ready when death do the call
Mind the judges "great" and tall
To be ready when you do the call
For I am flesh, I am bones
The testimony of men,
The legacy of Cain
But even when death seals
The eyes of my shell
Let the eyes of my mind
See over the veil
Of the holy of holies.
For I am the lidless eye
Gazing beyond humane greed.
Pray unto me
Thou who gave thyself to me
Let thy blood wash away
The stains of my sins
And let the infamy hide
My rectitude
As my grief and diseases...
So surge thou thy guilt... to the death!
