My exalted Jesus,
You are my refuge forever,
You are my support,
You are everything to me—You alone.
1
Give me grace, O King,
to wake each morning with my eyes fixed on You.
May it always be You and Your mercy alone;
may my whole life on this earth belong to You.
2
Every day You care for me
and remain beside me as my faithful Friend.
You lead me day after day like a loving Father;
I will rest close to my Lord's heart.
3
At Calvary, upon the great cross,
the merciful One stretched out His hands and feet for me,
allowing them to be pierced by nails.
The Lord did this to make me His own child.
4
When will You come, my beloved Lord?
My eyes long to see You.
I will wait for my Beloved,
the One who loved me and gave His life for me.
