Earth my substance, Water my fullness, Air my strength, Fire my joy.
I was lifted up, I was cut down, I was broken, I was burned.
Earth I was, Water bound me, Air leavened me, Fore formed me.
All four elements Of the round worls Meet in me For man’s feeding.
For I am strength, I am cleanness, I am freedom, I am light.
I am lifted up, And draw men unto me, The fair white body Of God’s Son.
