EROS.

Before thy throne I bow;
I tear my worshipped idols from their shrine;
I give to thee, though bruised and aching now,
This heart,—oh! make it thine.
I tear my worshipped idols from their shrine;
I give to thee, though bruised and aching now,
This heart,—oh! make it thine.
I’ve sought to fill in vain
Its lonely, silent depths with human love:
Help me to cast away each earthly chain,
And rise to thee above.
Its lonely, silent depths with human love:
Help me to cast away each earthly chain,
And rise to thee above.
