Mayest Thou have entered in blessing
under this mean and lowly roof.
Blessed art Thou, O Lord, in the highest,
for that Thou hast come into my heart,
Thou Day-spring from on high.
O King of peace,
drive from my heart all vain and idle thoughts,
that my soul may imitate and love Thee only,
the Author of peace.
For what beside Thee, O Thou peace,
Thou calm and sweetness of my heart,
should my soul seek for or desire?
Amen.
