If You Lift Yourself Up To Me. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

If You Lift Yourself Up To Me.

Rating: 4.7


If you lift yourself up to me
with all your heart
I shall be with you in your distress
for you have heard the words of my mouth.

I shall clothe you with my robe of mercy
And gird you with my joy.
I shall fix you like a peg in a sure spot
I shall give you honor wherever you are.

-
O, unseen God!
worshiping you in my secret temple
I offer you the incense of love
before your golden shrine.

I shall sing your praises
playing on my veena.

Would you be pleased
when I dance
through the night
in your holy presence,
until the dawn breaks
into mild golden rays.

(Veena is an Indian musical instrument)
