Take Thou My Love


Take thou my love, I give it all to thee
As space far-reaching, deep as the deep sea,
it grew for thee alone, and only thee,
Take thou my love.

Heed not the love that others offer thee.
Dregs of some other love's satiety,
Mere bankrupts are they, spending thriftlessly;
Heed not their love.

Take, then, my love, 'tis Fate's ordained decree,
Let it encompass, thrill through, melt in thee,
Making us one to all eternity;
Take, then, my love.
