George Herbert - Clasping of Hands

George Herbert - Clasping of Hands

LORD, Thou art mine, and I am Thine, br If mine I am; and Thine much more br Then I or ought or can be mine. br Yet to be Thine doth me restore, br So that again I now am mine, br And with advantage mine the more, br Since this being mine brings with it Thine, br And Thou with me dost Thee restore: br If I without Thee would be mine, br I neither should be mine nor Thine. br br Lord, I am Thine, and Thou art mine; br So mine Thou art, that something more br I may presume Thee mine then Thine, br For Thou didst suffer to restore br Not Thee, but me, and to be mine: br And with advantage mine the more, br Since Thou in death wast none of Thine, br Yet then as mine didst me restore: br O, be mine still; still make me Thine; br Or rather make no Thine and Mine.
