Seek out this soul of mine and visit it with your own ardor glowing: O Comforter, draw near, within my heart appear, and kindle it, your holy flame bestowing. 2 O let it freely burn, till earthly passions turn to dust and ashes in its heat consuming; and let your glorious light shine ever on my sight, and make my pathway clear, by your illuming. 3 Let holy charity my outward vesture be, and lowliness become my inner clothing; true lowliness of heart which takes the humbler part, and for its own shortcomings weeps with loathing. 4 And so the yearning strong with which the soul will long shall far surpass the power of human telling; for none can guess its grace till we become the place in which the Holy Spirit makes his dwelling.

Grant us then the grace of giving with a spirit large and free, that our life and all our living, we may consecrate to thee. 2 We are thine, thy mercy sought us, found us in death's dreadful way, to the fold in safety brought us, never more from thee to stray. Thine own life thou freely gavest as an off'ring on the cross for each sinner whom thou savest from eternal shame and loss. 3 Blest by thee with gifts and graces, may we heed thy church's call; gladly in all times and places give to thee who givest all. Thou hast bought us, and no longer can we claim to be our own; ever free and ever stronger, we shall serve thee, Lord, alone. 4 Savior, thou hast freely given all the blessings we enjoy, earthly store and bread of heaven, love and peace without alloy; humbly now we bow before thee, and our all to thee resign; for the kingdom, pow'r, and glory, are, O Lord, forever thine.
