The Beautiful Ageless One

My lord how sweet your face!
how sweet your breath upon me
how sweet the grace sustaining.

Times like these I can't imagine
not being so close
so aware

but I also know how much it is YOU
who came to me
and not I to you

for from a distance there are many sweet faces
your's is but one amongst hundreds
and by my own heart
I would have chosen another
while dreaming of you

but how sweet is your love!
how sweet is your love!
that you choose me
and protect me from my self
from my blindness.

how sweet is your radiant beauty!
how wondrous is your closeness!
pray let me stay!
