Hymn for a musician
G. Dyson
Unto Thy word so tuned let me be,
That in each part I may thereto agree.
He sings and plays the songs which best Thou lovest,
Who does and says the things which Thou approvest.
Teach me the strain that calmeth minds enraged
And which from vain affections doth recall.
So to the choir where angels music make
I may aspire when I this life forsake.
