AD JESUM.

By Independent

“Dignare me, O Jesu.”
Deign, Jesus, Lord, my soul to hide Within thy pierced and bleeding side! O give me in thy wounded heart My rest to find, nor thence depart.
When Satan’s wiles would work me harm, And Earth with her delights would charm, Within thy heart I safely rest, Within thy side secure and blest.
When sense with every art beguiles, And tempts me with her treacherous smiles, I will not fear, since still for me Thy side a refuge safe shall be.
When fate shall end my mortal breath, And close these eyes in darksome death, O Jesus, let my soul abide E’en then within thy bleeding side! —Independent.
