[Conscious of my happiness]

I would to God, that not only thou, but, &c. —xxvi. 29.

Conscious of my happiness,
Peace, unutterable peace
Would I not to all impart,
Peace which now o'erflows my heart,
Makes it tenderly inclined,
Draws it out to all mankind!
Bless'd with my felicity
O that every soul might be,
Feel what real Christians feel,
Joy incomprehensible,
Live the life of those above,
Swallow'd up and lost in love!
