| 1. My spirit longs for Thee,
Within my troubled breast,
Though I unworthy be
Of so divine a Guest.
2. Of so divine a Guest
Unworthy though I be,
Yet has my heart no rest
Unless it come from Thee.
3. Unless it come from thee,
In vain I look around;
In all that I can see
No rest is to be found.
4. No rest is to be found
But in Thy blessèd love;
O let my wish be crowned
And send it from above.
