God be in my heart

Elinor REMICK WARREN (1900-1991)
Text: Anonymus, 16th Century

God be in my heart
And in my understanding;
God be in my eyes
And in my looking;

God be in my lips
And in my speaking;
God be in my heart,
God be in my heart

And in my thinking;
God be with me at the end
And at my departing.
Oh, oh, God be in my heart.

We Two

Elinor Remick WARREN (1900-1991)
Text by Walt Whitman (1819-1892)

Shine! Shine! Shine!
Pour down your warmth, great sun!
While we bask, we two together.
Winds blow South or winds blow North,
Day come white, or night come black,
Home or rivers and mountains from home,
Singing all the time,
Minding no time,
While we two keep together.
