Son of God! to thee I cry:
By the holy mystery
Of thy dwelling here on earth,
By thy pure and holy birth,
Hear, Oh, hear my lowly plea:
Manifest thyself to me!
Lamb of God! to thee I cry:
By thy bitter agony,
By thy pangs to us unknown,
By thy spirit’s parting groan,
Hear, oh, hear my lowly plea:
Manifest thyself to me!
Prince of Life! to thee I cry
By thy glorious majesty,
By thy triumph o’er the grave,
Meek to suffer, strong to save,
Hear, oh, hear my fervid plea:
Manifest thyself to me!
Lord of glory, God most high!
Man exalted to the sky,
With thy love my bosom fill:
Prompt me to perform thy will:
Then thy glory I shall see—
Thou wilt bring me home to thee.
