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?
