AFTER COMMUNION. - ZaunköniG - 28.10.2007 AFTER COMMUNION. WHY should I call Thee Lord, who art my God ? Why should I call Thee Friend, who art my Love ? Or King, who art my very Spouse above ? Or call Thy Sceptre on my heart Thy rod ? Lo, now Thy banner over me is love, All heaven flies open to me at Thy nod : For Thou hast lit Thy flame in me a clod, Made me a nest for dwelling of Thy Dove. What wilt Thou call me in our home above, Who now hast called me friend ? how will it be When Thou for good wine settest forth the best ? Now Thou dost bid me come and sup with Thee, Now Thou dost make me lean upon Thy breast : How will it be with me in time of love ? |
