       come  near  thee;  where  is  supreme  and  settled  security,
       and  tranquil  joy,  and  joyful  happiness,  and  a  happy
       eternity, an eternal blessedness, the blessed Trinity, and
       the unity of the Trinity, the Godhead in unity, the blissful
       vision of the Godhead: the joy of thy Lord!
       O joy upon joy, joy transcending all joys!  When shall I
       enter into thee, and behold my Lord, whose dwelling is
       in thee.! I shall  go  thither  and see this  great sight. And
       now  what  keepeth  me  back?    Woe  is  me,  that  my
       sojourning is prolonged!  How long, O Lord, shall it be
       said to me:  Wait, wait, yet awhile?  Come O Lord, delay
       no  longer!    Come,  Lord  Jesus  Christ,  and  visit  us  in
       peace;  come  and  bring  forth  thy  captives  from  their

       dungeon, that they may praise thee with a perfect heart!

       Come, thou desire of all nations, show thy face, and we
       shall be saved! Come, my light, my redeemer, bring my
       soul out of prison, that it may give thanks to thy Name.
       Blessed  are  they  who  have  passed  over  the  great  and
       wide  sea  to  the  eternal  shore,  and  are  now  blessed  in
       their  desired  rest.    Blessed  are  they  who  have  escaped
       from all evils, and are secure of their unfading  glory in
       thee, thou kingdom of blessedness!  How long shall I be
       tossed about the waves of this my mortal life, crying unto
       thee, O Lord God, while thou hearest me not?  Hear me,
       O Lord, from this great and wide ocean, and bring me to
       the everlasting haven.                         258
