Lyics

MY God, my heart with love inflame,

That I may in thy holy name

Aloud in songs of praise rejoice,

While I have breath to raise my voice.



No more let my ungrateful heart

One moment from thy praise depart;

But live and sing, in sweet accord,

The glories of my sov'reign Lord.



Jesus! thou hope of glory, come,

And make my heart thy constant home;

Through all the remnant of my days,

O let me speak and live thy praise!



In thine embrace I then would die,

And rise to worlds of endless joy,

When Christ the Lord in clouds shall come,

And Michael's trump shall rend my tomb.
