1
I love you, O my Lord most high,
For first your love has captured me;
I seek no other liberty:
Bound by your love, I shall be free.

2
My memory no thought suggest
But shall to your pure glory tend;
May understanding find no rest,
Except in you, its only end.

Refrain:
All mine is yours: say but the word,
Say what you will, it shall be done;
I know your love, most gracious Lord,
I know you seek my good alone.

3
Apart from you, nothing can be,
So grant me this, my only wish,
To love you, Lord, eternally,
You give me all in giving this.

(Repeat Verse 2)

(Repeat Refrain 2x)
