I Am The Great Sun

Joanne Hogg

I am the great sun, but you do not see me
I am your husband, but you turn away
I am the captive, but you do not free me
I am the captain but you will not obey

I am the truth, but you will not believe me
I am the city where you will not stay
I am your wife, your child, but you will leave me
I am that God to whom you will not pray

I am your counsel, but you will not hear me
I am your lover whom you will betray
I am the victor, but you do not cheer me
I am the holy dove whom you will slay
I am your life, but if you will not name me
Seal up your soul with tears, and never blame me
