Safe |
| O Lord, I live here as a fish in a vessel of water, only enough to keep me |
| alive, but in Heaven, I shall swim in the ocean. |
| Here, I have a little air in me to keep me breathing, but there, |
| I shall have sweet and fresh gales. |
| Here, I have a beam of sun to lighten my darkness, a warm ray to keep me from |
| freezing, but yonder, I shall live in light and warmth forever. |
| My natural desires are corrupt and misguided, and it is Thy mercy to destroy |
| them. |
| My spiritual longings are of Thy planting, and Thou wilt water and increase |
| them. |
| Quicken my hunger and thirst after the realm of love. |
| Here, I can have the world, but there, I shall have Thee in Christ. |
| Here is a life of longing and prayer; |
| there is assurance without suspicion, |
| asking without refusal. |
| Here are close comforts, more burden than benefit; |
| there is joy without sorrow, |
| comfort without suffering, love without inconstancy, and rest without |
| weariness. |
| Give me the… |
| Heaven is all love, where the eye affects the heart, and the continual viewing |
| of Thy beauty keeps the soul in continual transports of delight. |
| Give me the… |
| Heaven is all peace… |
| Give me the… |
| Heaven is all joy… |
| the end of believing, fasting, praying… |
| and watching and leaving to it soon. |
