Quiet Lamb and Prince of Peace,
Thirst for Thee shall never cease!
Oh be near, Shepherd dear,
That my heart be strong, no more to sin or fear!

May I love Thee faithfully,
Childlike and obediently;
May my mind Ever find
Favor to submit to Thy will, Lord so kind!

With a gentle spirit bless
That is full of kindliness,
That in me It may be
The adornment, precious,
And of worth to Thee.

Grant that I may here be brave,
Loving Thee unto the grave,
That in pain, Storm and rain,
I may be a lamb and lion in Thy name.

Keep me ever spotless, free,
And that I may wakeful be,
Oft to pray, Night and day,
And to travel faithfully the narrow way.

Lamb of God, who overcame,
Give me grace in Jesus' name,
That in Thee I may be
Able, through Thy blood, to win the victory.

Lead me then, when I must go
Through death's valley here below;
Lord, in death Give me faith,
And protect and strengthen me in my last breath.

When Thou stand'st on Zion's height,
Grant that I stand at Thy right,
From pain free, Cleansed in Thee,
Where Thou wilt, O Lamb, my light and temple be.
