EA, with my whole heart, and with all my might,

Lord, I have loved Thee! Openly, apart,

Thy Name is with me; shall I go alone?

He is my love; shall I dwell solitary?

He is my lamp; how shall my light be quenched?

How shall I halt, and He a staff for me?

Men have despised me, knowing not that shame

For Thy Name's glory is my glorious pride.

Fount of my life! I bless Thee while I live,

And sing my song to Thee while being is mine!
