My Prophet, Priest, and King! My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End! Accept the praise I bring. 4 Weak is the effort of my heart, And cold my warmest thought; But when I see Thee as Thou art, I'll praise Thee as I ought. 5 Till then I would Thy love proclaim With every fleeting breath: And may the music of Thy Name Refresh my soul in death.
