O beauty ancient, O beauty so new Late have i loved thee and feebly yet do THOUGH you were with me, i was not with YOU Then you shone your face and i was blind no more My heart searches restlessly and finds no rest 'till it rests in thee O seeker you sought for me, your love has found me. I am taken by thee I sought this world and chased its finer things. Yet were these not in you, they would have not been. My ceaseless longing hid the deeper truth In all my desirings, i was desiring you Lord i my deafness ypu cried out to me. I drew my breath and now your fragrance i breathe. O fount of life, you are forever the same, O fire of love, come set me a flame My heart searches restlessly, and finds no rest 'till it rests in thee O seeker you sought for me, your love has found me I am taken by thee
