O God omnipotent, O God supreme,

O God of love who art the God of Gods,

Behold thy worshipper upon his knees

Prostrated in the dust.

Let not my supplications rise in vain

From depths iniquitous to heights sublime.

O grant me my request, good God of love.

Unlock for me thy secret treasure house

And make me master of the arts of love.

My heart conceives great symphonies of love
