- HOLY Father, hear me;
Thou art my defender;
Be thou ever near me,
Loving, true, and tender.
- Jesus, blessed Master.
Lord of Life and glory,
Bid the hours fly faster,
Till I kneel before Thee.
- Comforter benignest,
Who abiding in me
All my need divinest,
Move me, draw me, win me.
- Holy, Holy, Holy,
Come and leave me never,
Thine abode most lowly,
Only Thine for ever. Amen.
