From the sweet-scented streams...
Create in me a pure heart...
He is the Gracious, the All-Bountiful!
O my Lord! Make Thy beauty to be my food...
Lauded be Thy Name, O Lord my God!
O my God, the God of bounty and mercy!
He is the prayer-hearing, prayer-answering God!
Glorified art Thou, O Lord my God!
I beseech Thee, O my God...
Vouchsafe unto me, O my God...
O God! Refresh and gladden my spirit
O my God! O my God! Glory be unto Thee...
O my Lord! O my Lord! This is a lamp...
O my God! O my God! This, Thy servant...
O God, my God! This is Thy radiant servant...
O God, my God! These are Thy feeble servants...
He is God! O God, my God!
O Thou Provider! Thou hast breathed over...

    From the sweet-scented streams...

 
F rom the sweet-scented streams of Thine eternity give me to drink, O my God, and of the fruits of the tree of Thy being enable me to taste, O my Hope!  From the crystal springs of Thy love suffer me to quaff, O my Glory, and beneath the shadow of Thine everlasting providence let me abide, O my Light!  Within the meadows of Thy nearness, before Thy presence, make me able to roam, O my Beloved, and at the right hand of the throne of Thy mercy, seat me, O my Desire!  From the fragrant breezes of Thy joy let a breath pass over me, O my Goal, and into the heights of the paradise of Thy reality let me gain admission, O my Adored One!  To the melodies of the dove of Thy oneness suffer me to hearken, O Resplendent One, and through the spirit of Thy power and Thy might quicken me, O my Provider!  In the spirit of Thy love keep me steadfast, O my Succorer, and in the path of Thy good pleasure set firm my steps, O my Maker!  Within the garden of Thine immortality, before Thy countenance, let me abide for ever, O Thou Who art merciful unto me, and upon the seat of Thy glory stablish me, O Thou Who art my Possessor!  To the heaven of Thy loving-kindness lift me up, O my Quickener, and unto the Daystar of Thy guidance lead me, O Thou my Attractor!  Before the revelations of Thine invisible spirit summon me to be present, O Thou Who art my Origin and my Highest Wish, and unto the essence of the fragrance of Thy beauty, which Thou wilt manifest, cause me to return, O Thou Who art my God! 

Potent art Thou to do what pleaseth Thee.  Thou art, verily, the Most Exalted, the All-Glorious, the All-Highest.
