By the grace

Verse I
By candle’s breath and moonlit stone,
I kneel where vows are softly sworn,
Thy name I carve in silent prayer,
For none on earth to thee compare.
Mine eyes were lost till thine they found,
A truer light than crown or crown,
Though fate be cruel and roads be torn,
My heart is thine till death be born.
Chorus
Oh my love, my chosen flame,
Written deep in Heaven’s name,
Should war or time our souls divide,
I’d find thee still, whate’er betide.
By sword, by sin, by holy vow,
I swear my breath is thine somehow,
No king nor grave shall claim me so,
As thou, my love, whom I adore.
Verse II
Through iron nights and blood-red fields,
My shield thy gentle memory wields,
When bells of doom begin to cry,
‘Tis thoughts of thee that make me rise.
If thou art tear, then I am rain,
If thou art wound, I am the pain,
Bound not by flesh, nor law, nor land,
But by thy touch, thy whispered hand.
Chorus
Oh my love, my chosen flame,
Written deep in Heaven’s name,
Should war or time our souls divide,
I’d find thee still, whate’er betide.
Bridge
Let monks record in aged ink,
That love like ours outlived the brink,
And if I burn for loving thee,
Then sweet the fire shall ever be.
Final Chorus
Oh my love, my mortal sin,
My holiest prayer beneath my skin,
When all the world to dust has turned,
My love for thee shall still have burned.
Outro
So take my oath, so take my soul,
Till stars grow cold and bells toll low,
For in this life and next I swear,
My heart is thine—beyond despair.
