As thou hast died for me, O may my love to thee pure, warm, and changeless be, a living fire! 3 While life's dark maze I tread and griefs around me spread, be thou my guide. Bid darkness turn to day, wipe sorrow's tears away, nor let me ever stray from thee aside. 4 When life's swift race is run, death's cold work almost done, be near to me.
