SWEETEST in desperate hoursA
Of clouds and lightning and rainB
You came like a vision of flowersA
And summer and song once againC
You came and I could not receive youD
Seared in my flesh in my sightE
I heedlessly turned back to leave youD
We passed on into the nightE
Heart soul and all sweet never to sever Love me for everF
Dearest in hours of twilightE
Terrible silent and loneG
When the light long sought for as my lightE
And found for ever seemed goneH
When the hope of the love dream of boyhoodI
Passed sad with unknowing rebuffJ
With your passionate patience and joyhoodI
You came O my Priestess of LoveK
Heart soul and all dear never to sever Love me for everF
With your lips to mine deathly reposingL
You kissed back the blood and the sighsM
You lit up my tired eyes unclosingL
With the light of your beautiful eyesM
You held me close pressed to your bosomN
Your heart to my heart beating strongL
In mine eyes put your life like a blossomN
Put my love in your lips like a songL
Heart soul and all sweet never to severF
Love me for everF
Dearest of my heart blood's EvangelO
I hail you Queen and of meP
Sweetest I revere you ArchangelO
Of the better time that shall beP
So to these Songs for my love's sakeL
As Priestess of Love must you standI
And for the great Truth above's sakeL
God's seraph with his sword in your handI
Heart soul and all dear never to severF
Love me for everF
