I am the great sun, but you do not see me And I am the husband, but you turn away I am the captive, but you do not free me And I am the captain you will not obey me I am the truth, but you will not believe me I am the city where you will not stay And I am your wife, your child, but you will leave me And I am that God to whom you will not pray
I am your counsel, but you will not heed me And I am your lover whom you will betray I am the victor, but you do not cheer me And I am the holy dove whom you will slay I am your life, but if you will not name me Seal up your soul with tears, and never blame me
