Come, my way, my truth, my life

Come, my way, my truth, my life;

Such a way as gives us breath,

Such a truth that ends all strife,

Such a life as conquers death.

Come, my light, my feast, my strength;

Such a light as shows a feast,

Such a feast as mends in length,

Such a strength as makes his guest.

Come, my joy, my love, my heart;

Such a joy as none can move,

Such a love as none can part,

Such a heart as joys in love.

George Herbert, 1593-1632.
