lyrics

I WILL BEND
In the silence before dawn, where the angels make their stand / I lie in wait & long for your hand / In the House of Humility, such a poor servant am I / But for thee, I will bend / And if these hands will serve, let them serve / If this heart should break or mend / And if this mouth might sing, let it sing – For thee I will bend / I will bend to thee, I will bend to thee / If it pleases thee, I will bend / I will bend to thee, I will bend to thee / If it pleases thee, I will bend / Strip me of all arrogance, take from me this cloak / That conceals the perfect innocence of which the Ancients spoke / I will kneel if it pleases thee, or as easily shed this yoke / I will bend to thee, I will bend / Restore me to that Essence from which I have come / O, that I & the Beloved are One / And if I am water, let me fall on thee / And where I am flame, burn me totally / And where I am ether, let me enter thy mouth / I will bend to thee, I will bend / And if…For thee I will bend…
