The Innocence Mission
A setting of the Gerard Manley Hopkins poem “Heaven-Haven”, with some lines rearranged to alter the rhyme scheme from ABBA to AABB.
The poem is about a woman explaining her choice to become a nun, saying that she is looking for the peace and protection of god’s love.
I have desired to go
Oh, I have asked to go
Where a few lilies blow
To fields where flies no sharp and sided hail
And springs not fail
And springs not fail
And I have asked to be
Oh, I have asked to be
Out of the swing of the sea
Where the green swell is in the heavens dumb
And no storms come
And no storms come
No Storms Come was written by Karen Peris & Gerard Manley Hopkins.
