Chant: |
|
Flos Carmeli, |
|
vitis florigera, |
|
splendor caeli, |
|
Virgo puerpera |
|
singularis. |
|
|
|
Mater mitis, |
|
sed viri nescia, |
|
Carmelitis, |
|
esto propitia, |
|
Stella maris |
|
|
|
When the dark wood fell before me |
|
And all the paths were overgrown |
|
When the priests of pride say there is no other way |
|
I tilled the sorrows of stone |
|
|
|
I did not believe because I could not see |
|
Though you came to me in the night |
|
When the dawn seemed forever lost |
|
You showed me your love in the light of the stars |
|
|
|
Chorus: |
|
Cast your eyes on the ocean |
|
Cast your soul to the sea |
|
When the dark night seems endless |
|
Please remember me |
|
|
|
Then the mountain rose before me |
|
By the deep well of desire |
|
From the fountain of forgiveness |
|
Beyond the ice and the fire |
|
|
|
(Chorus) |
|
|
|
Though we share this humble path, alone |
|
How fragile is the heart |
|
Oh give these clay feet wings to fly |
|
To touch the face of the stars |
|
|
|
Breathe life into this feeble heart |
|
Lift this mortal veil of fear |
|
Take these crumbled hopes, etched with tears |
|
We'll rise above these earthly cares |
|
|
|
(Chorus) |
|
|
|
Please remember me |
|
Please remember me, ... |
|
(Chant) |
