“THROUGHOUT eternity Thou hast been, O my Lord, …” 194 |
THROUGHOUT eternity Thou hast been, O my Lord,
and wilt ever remain the One true God, while all else save
Thee are needy and poor. Having clung tenaciously to Thy
Cord, O my God, I have detached myself from all mankind,
and having set my face towards the habitation of Thy
tender mercy, I have turned away from all created things.
Graciously inspire me, O my God, through Thy grace and
bounty, Thy glory and majesty, and Thy dominion and
grandeur, for no one mighty and all-knowing can I find
beside Thee. Protect me, O my God, through the potency
of Thy transcendent and all-sufficing glory and by the hosts
of the heavens and the earth, inasmuch as in no one can I
wholly place my trust but in Thee and no refuge is there
but Thee.
