Mother Of God, Here I Stand - Voces8
Lyrics by：John Tavener/Mikhail Jurjewitsch Lermontov
Composed by：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
