Now the endless balance of the day’s long turmoil quenches,
Slakes my ever-lasting thirst for You
Never before dreamt of – or ever conjured it could be this real
So entirely close, within, without – you pervade me.
I earnestly beseech thee
To invade my wearisome soul
Perchance ascribe me a tangible role
I shall brandish your standard through all my life’s battles
And not rest till my heart meets Yours.
