The Swine.
Lord, I am thine,Although possest;
O be thou mine,
And give some rest
To me a beast.
O Christ, be good
To sinful man,
And with thy blood,
Lord, wash me clean:
Be thou my food,
My staff, my stay;
My King, my God,
And thee alway
I will obey.
Command my sins into the Sea,
That I may praise and honour thee.
