But even could I see him die
I could but see a little part
Of that great love which, like a fire
Is always burning in His heart
I could but see a little part
Of that great love which, like a fire
Is always burning in His heart
Same words, different contexts -
What maketh thee of it?
Hear as I speak:
"Wait not upon it,
Though it pleases thy soul.
For it is a thing most wonderful,
Almost too wonderful to be.
It devours spirit,
As the breaking of dawn
Or the splendour of dusk.
There lies, beneath its shadow,
The place I claim as my abode.
O come, come and cheer;
Disperse these fleeting, motley emotions
To the monochromatic rays of hope.
Take the path that leads on high,
Stay far from the Valley of Destruction.
Let not kisses fool thee,
Neither words drenched in honey;
And no more let it rule."
(Pardon my sucky prose. Impulsive release.)

Today. My maternal grandfather's going to be admitted into hospital. He's got an op scheduled for tomorrow. Prostate problems, that come with age. Y'know?
On the other hand, it's my paternal grandfather's birthday. We're having a celebration in the evening. (Thus I've to miss CP's Birthday Dinner at Seoul Garden, Taka. Anyhow, HAPPY 16th, Babe ♥)
I'm torn.
