I would be thine, thou knowest I would,
And have thee all my own;
Thee, O my all-sufficient Good,
I want, and thee alone.
Thy name to me, thy nature grant!
This, only this, be given:
Nothing besides my God I want,
Nothing in earth or heaven.
Come, my Saviour, come away,
Into my soul descend;
No longer from thy creature stay,
My Author and my End.
Come, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
And seal me thine abode;
Let all I am in thee be lost,
Let all be lost in God!
