## The words

Come, O my love! Come, fly to me;  
All my soul Cries out for thee: Haste to thy  
home, I long for thee, Faint for thee,  
Worship thee only,-- but Come! Dark is the  
wood,-- The track's ever lonely and gray:  
But joyous the blaze That welcomes and shews  
thee the way.  
Come, O my love! Come, fly to me;  
All my soul Cries out for thee: Haste to thy  
rest, I long for thee, Sigh for thee,  
Faint for thee; Come to my breast.  
Cold is the stream,-- The ford is a danger to  
thee:  
My heart is a flame, As the beacon that lights  
thee to me.  
Come, O my love! Come, fly to me;  
All my soul Cries out for thee: Haste to thy  
home, I long for thee, Faint for thee,  
Worship thee only; but Come!
