My God, I Love Thee; Not Because
I Hope For Heaven Thereby,
Nor Yet Because Who Love Thee Not
May Eternally Die.
Thou, O My Jesus, Thou Didst Me
Upon The Cross Embrace;
For Me Didst Bear The Nails And Spear,
And Manifold Disgrace.
And Griefs And Torments Numberless,
And Sweat Of Agony;
Even Death Itself; And All For Man
Who Was Thine Enemy.
Then Why, O Blessed Jesus Christ
Should I Not Love Thee Well?
Not For The Hope Of Winning Heaven,
Nor Of Escaping Hell.
Not With The Hope Of Gaining Aught,
Nor Seeking A Reward,
But As Thyself Hast Loved Me,
O Everlasting Lord!
Even So I Love Thee, And Will Love,
And In Thy Praise Will Sing,
Solely Because Thou Art My God,
And My Eternal King.
