More Juan de la Cruz

"The higher I ascended
In this O'lofty seeking
The lower and more subdued
And abased I became...
And through this adventure
I faltered in my flight
But love had already flown so high
That I took my prey"

From the poetry of Saint John of the Cross (1542-1591) as transcribed for guitar by John Michael Talbot
(from the "Lover and Beloved" recording)
