Before the glory of your love <br />The beauty of the world is bowed <br />In adoration, and to prove <br />Your praises every Truth is proud: <br /> <br />Each silent witness testifies <br />Your wonder by its native worth <br />And dumbly its delight denies <br />That your wild music may have birth: <br /> <br />Only this madman cannot keep <br />Your peace, but flings his bursting heart <br />Forth to red battle,—while they weep <br />Your music who have held apart.<br /><br />Joseph Mary Plunkett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/before-the-glory-of-your-love/
