The Rapture

Sweet Infancy!    O fire of heaven!

O sacred Light    How fair and bright,    How great am I,  Whom all the world doth magnify!      O Heavenly Joy!  O great and sacred blessedness    Which I possess!    So great a joy  Who did into my arms convey?        From God above  Being sent, the Heavens me enflame:    To praise his Name    The stars do move!  The burning sun doth shew His love.      O how divine  Am I!

To all this sacred wealth,    This life and health,    Who raised?

Who mine  Did make the same?

What hand divine?
