mary sidney herbert - o lord in me there lieth naught - ghizela rowe lyrics

o lord! in me there lieth naught
but to thy search revealed lies;
for when i sit
thou markest it
no less thou notest when i rise;
yea, closest closet of my thought
hath open windows to thine eyes

thou walkest with me when i walk;
when to my bed for rest i go
i find thee there
and everywhere;
not youngest thought in me doth grow
no, not one word i cast to talk
but yet unuttered thou dost know

to shun thy notice, leavе thine eye
o, whithеr might i take my way?
to starry sphere?
thy throne is there
to dead men’s undelightsome stay?
there is thy walk, and there to lie
unknown, in vain i should essay

o sun, whom light nor flight can match
suppose thy lightful, flightful wings
thou lend to me
and i could flee
as far as thee the evening brings;
even led to west, he would me catch
nor should i lurk with western things
do thou thy best, o secret night
in sable veil to cover me;
the sable veil
shall vainly fail;
with day unmasked my night shall be:
for night is day, and darkness light
o father of all lights, to thee
