Mimnermus In Church Lyrics – North Sea Radio Orchestra
Singer: North Sea Radio Orchestra
Title: Mimnermus In Church
You promise heavens free from strife
Pure truth, and perfect change of will;
But sweet, sweet is this human life
So sweet, I fain would breathe it still;
Your chilly stars I can forgo
This warm kind world is all I know
You say there is no substance here
Back from that void I shrink in fear
Show me what angels feel. Till then
I cling, a mere weak man, to men
You bid me lift my mean desires
From faltering lips and fitful veins
To sexless souls, ideal quires
My mind with fonder welcome owns
One dear dead friend’s remember’d tones
Forsooth the present we must give
To that which cannot pass away;
All beauteous things for which we live
By laws of time and space decay
But O, the very reason why
I clasp them, is because they die
