¶Lyrics / Text

Jesu, grant me this, I pray, ever in thy heart to stay; let me evermore abide hidden in thy wounded side. If the world or Satan lay tempting snares about my way, I am safe when I abide in thy heart and wounded side. If the flesh, more dangerous still, tempt my soul to deeds of ill, naught I fear when I abide in thy heart and wounded side. Death will come one day to me; Jesu, cast me not from thee: dying let me still abide in thy heart and wounded side.
