John 16:24: Hitherto have ye asked nothing in My name, &c

Nothing have we ask'd of Thee,
Compared with what we want,
With Thy large benignity,
And readiness to grant:
Thou hast promised to bestow
Whate'er we in Thy name require:
Give us then Thyself to know,
Fulfil Thine own desire.

Power to pray and never cease
We in Thy name request,
Peace, inviolable peace,
And everlasting rest,
Plenitude of joy and love,
Till faith fill'd up can hold no more:
Then we join the hosts above,
And face to face adore.
