1 |
Remove not, O Lord, the festal board that hath
been spread in Thy Name, and extinguish
not the burning flame that hath been kindled by
Thine unquenchable fire. Withhold not from
flowing that living water of Thine that murmureth
with the melody of Thy glory and Thy
remembrance, and deprive not Thy servants from
the fragrance of Thy sweet savors breathing forth
the perfume of Thy love.

2 |
Lord! Turn the distressing cares of Thy holy
ones into ease, their hardship into comfort, their
abasement into glory, their sorrow into blissful
joy, O Thou that holdest in Thy grasp the reins of
all mankind!
| |
3 |
Thou art, verily, the One, the Single, the
Mighty, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise.
