My Heart an Altar, and Thy Love the Flame

 

January sunset impasto flat ch

Teach me to love Thee as Thine angels love,
One holy passion filling all my frame;
The kindling of the heaven descended Dove,
My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame.

(from Spirit of God, Descend Upon My Heart by George Croly)
