[All my lufe leif me not]

All my lufe leif me not,
Leif me not leif me not,
All my lufe leif me not
Thus myne alone:
With ane burding on my bak,

193

I may not beir it I am sa walk
Lufe this burding fra me tak
Or ellis I am gone.
With sinnis I am ladin soir,
Leif me not, leif me not,
With sinnis I am ladin soir
Leif me not alone:
I pray the Lord thairfoir
Keip not my sinnis in stoir,
Lowse me or I be forloir
And heir my mone.
With thy handis thow hes me wrocht.
Leif me not, leif me not,
With thy handis thow hes me wrocht
Leif me not alone:
I was sauld and thow me bocht
With thy blude thow hes me coft
Now am I hidder socht
To the Lord alone.
I cry and I call to the,
To leif me not, to leif me not,
I cry and I call to the
To leif me not alone:
All thay that ladin be
Thow biddis them cum to the
Than sall thay sauit be
Throw thy mercy alone.
Thow saues all the penitent
And leifis them not, and leifis them not,

194

Thow saifis all the penitent,
And leifis thame not allone:
All that will thair Sinnis repent,
Nane of thame salbe schent,
Suppose thy bow be reddy bent,
Of thame thow killis none.
Faith, hope, and cheritie,
Leif me not, leif me not,
Faith, hope, and cheritie,
Leif me not allone:
I pray the Lord grant me,
Thir godly giftis thre,
Than sall I saint be,
Dout haue I none.
To the Father be all gloir,
That leifis vs not, that leifis vs not,
To the Father be all gloir,
That leuis vs not allone,
Sone and haly Gaist, euer moir,
As it was of befoir,
Throw Christ our Sauiour,
We ar saif euerie one.
FINIS.
