The lord be in my mind always, may my heart be his
Tent from morning to sleeping.
My thoughts perch like young birds on my mind's
Branches, and fly winged with virtues from my lips;
May they nest in men's hearts and cheer the meadows of their minds with their chirping.
Yes, heartaken to ,my invitation, come live in my soul,
O my God; be the headwater of all my becoming.
So that though I be reveling midst merrymaking and
Maiden-laughter, my soul may be resting by the cool
Streams of valleys;
When I shall be drinking deep of the wine on banquet tables, may be fasting on locusts and honey my soul in the bloodied deserts;
Though in the palaces of pleasure my body be chained,
My soul may be walking untouched in the heights,
Breathing the rare perfumes of sightless mountains.
Be in my mind always, O God of freedom, may my heart
Be your tent from morning to sleeping.
