1 Praise to thee and adoration,
Blessed Jesus, Son of God,
Who, to serve thine own creation,
Didst assume our flesh and blood.
Grant that I may never stray
From thy sacred fold away,
But with zeal and holy favor
Follow thee, O blessed Saviour. A-men.

2 Let me never, Lord, forsake thee,
E'en though bitter pain and strife
On my way should overtake me;
But may I through all my life
Walk in fervent love to thee,
In all woes for comfort flee
To thy birth, thy death and passion,
Till I see thy full salvation.

Amen.
