All my trust on thee is stayed, all my help from thee I bring; cover my defenceless head with the shadow of thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want; more than all in thee I find! Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, heal the sick, and lead the blind.

Thou of life the fountain art, freely let me take of thee; spring thou up within my heart, rise to all eternity.
