Tho' my sins have from heaven forevermore barred me,
Tho' the flames of my Kingdom roll dark on my soul,
Tho' my knowlege of evil has forevermore marred me,
Tho' the glories of wickedness I should extol
Yet now I behold thee and gaze on thy beauty
and drink in thy radiance, my nature deserts me.
'Tis forgot that to torture and torment is duty,
From Devil to lover thy beauty coverts me,
From Devil to lover thy goodness converts me.
Behold me at thy feet in Adoration,
Behold me at thy feet in Adoration,
The once proud prince of realms infernal,
Pity my banishment eternal
And love me! Love me! That I may forget
That I may forget, that I may forget
Damnation! Damnation!
