Regeneration
By George Herbert (1593–1633)
 
SURELY if each one saw another’s heart,
      There would be no commèrce,
No sale or bargain pass: all would disperse
        And live apart.
 
Lord, mend or rather make us: one creation        5
      Will not suffice our turn:
Except Thou make us daily, we shall spurn
        Our own salvation.
