Take me, Jesus, to Thy breast;
Folded close in warmth and rest,
Keep me near to Thee;
Silenced in the bliss profound
Of the love that wraps me round,
Every care shall be.
Every breath for Thee alone,
O my heart's beloved One;
Comfort me in sleep.
Still deep rest art Thou to Thine,
Safely in Thine arms divine
Thy beloved keep.
