LXXXVII: “Magnified be Thy name, O Lord my God! Behold…” |
|
Magnified be Thy name, O Lord my God! Behold
Thou mine eye expectant to gaze on the wonders of
Thy mercy, and mine ear longing to hearken unto
148
Thy sweet melodies, and my heart yearning for the
living waters of Thy knowledge. Thou seest Thy
handmaiden, O my God, standing before the habitation
of Thy mercy, and calling upon Thee by Thy
name which Thou hast chosen above all other names
and set up over all that are in heaven and on earth.
Send down upon her the breaths of Thy mercy, that
she may be carried away wholly from herself, and
be drawn entirely towards the seat which, resplendent
with the glory of Thy face, sheddeth afar the radiance
of Thy sovereignty, and is established as Thy
throne. Potent art Thou to do what Thou willest.
No God is there beside Thee, the All-Glorious, the
Most Bountiful.

Cast not out, I entreat Thee, O my Lord, them
that have sought Thee, and turn not away such as
have directed their steps towards Thee, and deprive
not of Thy grace all that love Thee. Thou art He,
O my Lord, Who hath called Himself the God of
Mercy, the Most Compassionate. Have mercy, then,
upon Thy handmaiden who hath sought Thy shelter,
and set her face towards Thee.
