I greet Thee, who my sure Re­deem­er art,
My only trust and Sav­ior of my heart,
Who pain didst un­der­go for my poor sake;
I pray Thee from our hearts all cares to take.

Thou art the King of mer­cy and of grace,
Reigning om­ni­potent in ev­ery place;
So come, O King, and our whole be­ing sway;
Shine on us with the light of Thy pure day.

Thou art the life, by which alone we live,
And all our sub­stance and our strength re­ceive;
Sustain us by Thy faith and by Thy pow­er,
And give us strength in ev­ery try­ing hour.

Thou hast the true and per­fect gen­tle­ness,
No harsh­ness hast Thou and no bit­ter­ness;
O grant to us the grace we find in Thee,
That we may dwell in per­fect uni­ty.

Our hope is in no oth­er save in Thee;
Our faith is built upon Thy pro­mise free;
Lord, give us peace, and make us calm and sure,
That in Thy strength we ev­er­more en­dure.
