哦 我的神，
至公正，至伟大，万有之首，
我心仰慕您，崇拜您，爱您，
因我这小小容器早已满溢，
愿在您面前倾倒一切并不断涌流。
当我思想您、与您交谈时，
一万个愉悦的念头萌发，
一万个喜乐之源被开启，
一万个令人振奋的快乐散布心房，
成为我时刻的高兴。
我颂赞您，
为您所造的灵魂，
为它的更新和成圣，
为它在贫瘠之地得到修整；
也为您赐我的身体，
为您保守它的力量与生机，
为您给它感官以享受快乐，
为我的四肢能活动自如，
为我的手、眼和耳都做您的工；
为您皇家的赏赐是我每日的支持，
为满桌的食物和满溢的杯，
为食欲、口味和甜美的感受，
为与亲友交往而有的愉悦，
为有能力服事众人，
为我的心能感受哀伤与需求，
为我的心智能关爱身边的人，
为有机会把快乐分享给他们，
为以天上的喜乐爱他人，
为我自己的心愿，想要清晰地看见您。
我对您的爱已超越言语表达的能力，
因为您远超万有。
加增我的爱
哦 我的神，
超越时间与永恒。
PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING
O MY GOD,
Thou fairest, greatest, first of all objects,
my heart admires, adores, loves thee,
for my little vessel is as full as it can be,
and I would pour out all that fullness before thee in ceaseless flow.
When I think upon and converse with thee
ten thousand delightful thoughts spring up,
ten thousand sources of pleasure are unsealed,
ten thousand refreshing joys spread over my heart,
crowding into every moment of happiness.
I bless thee
for the soul thou hast created,
for adorning it, sanctifying it,
though it is fixed in barren soil;
for the body thou hast given me,
for preserving its strength and vigour,
for providing senses to enjoy delights,
for the ease and freedom of my limbs,
for hands, eyes, ears that do thy bidding;
for thy royal bounty providing my daily support, for a full table and overflowing cup,
for appetite, taste, sweetness,
for social joys of relatives and friends,
for ability to serve others,
for a heart that feels sorrows and necessities,
for a mind to care for my fellow-men,
for opportunities of spreading happiness around, for loved ones in the joys of heaven,
for my own expectation of seeing thee clearly.
I love thee above the powers of language to express,
for what thou art to thy creatures.
Increase my love,
O my God,
through time and eternity.
