Mother Of God

John Tavener

Mother of God, here I stand, now praying
before this icon of your radiant brightness

Not praying to be saved from a battlefield
Not giving thanks nor seeking forgiveness

For the sins of my soul

nor for all the souls, numb, joyless and desolate on earth


But for her alone
Whom I wholly give you
