OBJECT of my first desire,

If Thy presence Thou deny;

'Tis no longer death to die.

cres. Source and Giver of repose,
Singly from Thy smile it flows;
Peace and happiness are Thine;

Mine they are, if Thou art mine. Amen

O'er captive death and conquered sin.

Look down with sad and wondering eyes
To see the approaching sacrifice.

Thy last and fiercest strife is nigh;
The Father on His sapphire throne
Expects His own anointed Son.

p In lowly pomp ride on to die:

Bow Thy meek head to mortal pain;
