The Hymn

I would not love you if I understood you, I do not want to behold your face
Uncomprehending, I'm contented, knowing my station and my place
Oh precious saviour, oh great creator, don't give me signs I don't want to see
Better by far that you stay unfathomed, I could not love someone like me
Uncomprehending, I'm contented, knowing my station and my place

I would not love you if I understood you, I do not want to behold your face
Uncomprehending, I'm contented, knowing my station and my place
Oh precious saviour, oh great creator, don't give me signs I don't want to see
Better by far that you stay unfathomed, I could not love someone just like me
Uncomprehending, I'm contented, knowing my station and my place
