william davenant - praise and prayer - ghizela rowe lyrics

Loading...

praise is devotion fit for mighty minds
the diff’ring world’s agreeing sacrifice;
where heaven divided faiths united finds:
but prayer in various discord upward flies

for prayer the ocean is where diversely
men steer their course, each to a sev’ral coast;
where all our interests so discordant be
that half beg winds by which the rest are lost

by penitence when we ourselves forsake
’tis but in wise design on piteous heaven;
in praise we n0bly give what god may take
and are, without a beggar’s blush, forgiven
