Testo Come down, O Love divine - Ralph Vaughan Williams feat. Choir of King's College, CambridgeStephen Cleobury
Testo della canzone Come down, O Love divine (Ralph Vaughan Williams feat. Choir of King's College, CambridgeStephen Cleobury), tratta dall'album The Essential Vaughan Williams
1 Come down, O Love divine,
seek thou this soul of mine,
and visit it with thine own ardor glowing;
O Comforter, draw near,
within my heart appear,
and kindle it, thy holy flame bestowing.
2 O let it freely burn,
till earthly passions turn
to dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
and let thy glorious light
shine ever on my sight,
and clothe me round, the while my path illuming.
3 And so the yearning strong,
with which the soul will long,
shall far outpass the power of human telling;
for none can guess its grace,
till Love create a place
wherein the Holy Spirit makes a dwelling.
United Methodist Hymnal, 1989
