1. All praise oft-repeated and ongoing,
is due you for being so kind and keen to me.

2. You have favoured me without being asked; my own worth is enough for me.
Giving you thanks is an obligation and duty upon me.

3. Yet I have a need in my soul that I hope
you will make easy without any trouble for me,

4. along with making me happy in other ways. This
and that is a request I stretch out my hands with to you.

5. And in proverbs, he who gives will make complete,
so make complete O generous one, and be my guardian.
