That silent, secret thought shall be,

That all my hopes are fixed on thee.

3Thy glorious eye pervadeth space;

Thy presence, Lord, fills every place;

And wheresoe'er my lot may be,

Still shall my spirit cleave to thee.

4Renouncing every earthly thing,

And safe beneath thy spreading wing,

My sweetest thought henceforth shall be,

That all I want I find in thee.
