Come To Me Grief Forever

Come to me grief forever
Come to me tears day and night
Come to me plaint, ah, helpless
Just grief, heart tears, plaint worthy

Go from me dread to die now
Go from me care to live more
Go from me joys all on earth
Sidney, O Sidney is dead

He whom the Court adorned
He whom the country courtesied
He who made happy his friends
He that did good to all men

Sidney, the hope of lands strange
Sidney, the flower of England
Sidney, the spirit heroic
Sidney is dead, O dead, dead

Dead? no, no, but renomed
With the anointed oned
Honour on earth at his feet
Bliss everlasting his seat

Come to me grief for ever
Come to me tears day and night
Come to me plaint, ah, helpless
Just grief, heart tears, plaint worthy
