Dante's Prayer-meav

Chant: Flos Carmeli, Vitis florigera, Splendor caeli, Virgo puerpera Singularis. Mater mitis, Sed viri nescia, Carmelitis, Esto propitia, Stella maris When the dark wood fell before me And all the paths were overgrown When the priests of pride say there is no other way I tilled the sorrows of stone I did not believe because I could not see Though you came to me in the night When the dawn seemed forever lost You showed me your love in the light of the stars Chorus: Cast your eyes on the ocean Cast your soul to the sea When the dark night seems endless Please remember me Then the mountain rose before me By the deep well of desire From the fountain of forgiveness Beyond the ice and the fire (Chorus) Though we share this humble path, alone How fragile is the heart Oh give these clay feet wings to fly To touch the face of the stars Breathe life into this feeble heart Lift this mortal veil of fear Take these crumbled hopes, etched with tears We'll rise above these earthly cares (Chorus) Please remember me Please remember me, ... (Chant)
