Analysis of I call upon thee
Oh grate lady of the sea
on this night I call upon thee
wash my heart of all its sins
for I wish my soul to be lust free
so I may live happy and carefree
oh grate lord of the moon
on this night I call upon thee
grant me your changing power
for I wish to change my heart
so I may love yet never hurt
oh grate lady of the sun
on this night I call upon thee
for when the morning comes
I do so wish to be a bran new me
