REFLECTION XVIII.
To thee my God I make my prayer,
My sins are many; Lord we are
Mortal all;
Thus we call,
Hear our prayer,
Take our care;
Sins forgive
Whilst we live;
Make us as we ought to be,
Full of love and piety.
My sins are many; Lord we are
Mortal all;
Thus we call,
Hear our prayer,
Take our care;
Sins forgive
Whilst we live;
Make us as we ought to be,
Full of love and piety.
Hear me Lord I make a vow,
Keep me in it pray do thou,
Lord relent
I repent!
I believe,
Thou canst give,
Peace below,
With me now,
For surely thou art ever kind;
Ever keep my heart and mind!
Keep me in it pray do thou,
Lord relent
I repent!

Thou canst give,
Peace below,
With me now,
For surely thou art ever kind;
Ever keep my heart and mind!
To thee my God I make my prayer,
On thee my Lord I cast my care.
Make me through my Saviour's blood,
Now and ever kind and good,
Keep me as I ought to be,
Full of love and piety.
On thee my Lord I cast my care.
Make me through my Saviour's blood,
Now and ever kind and good,
Keep me as I ought to be,
Full of love and piety.
