Loves envy
No matter where i am
you stand before me
bringing all i own
you claimed me as your son
never wilting spirit bring
death before the fall of me
into thy bosoms calling
whilst my heart, 'tis ever birthing
the will of mans desire strong
while he hangs onto the shadows gone
you are my heart my all i need
to keep me head face up as i am fed
living all i do require was you to help me
live the life that i hath live
still for days my strength returns
to the one that will hath not yet yearns
thy desires ever willing
brings me thru all night long
