Living Death, Dying Life

Lord when thy spirit, and by thy grace sends up my soul to find thy face, and when thine eye's beseech disire that I should die in sacred fire. Oh Lord make me thy sacificlet let me triumphant pay the price. But let thy sun still shine that I may still behold though still I die. Yet though I die, I live again with sweetness of thy grace in reign. So gaining in much loss of breath I give myself to thee in death. Please still in me this yearning strife, of living death, and dying life. For while thou taketh life from me dead to myself I live in thee.

This is not to be preachy, It is just what I believe.
