What God, of those who hear, is he
whose well-praised name we may record in this our sacrifice;
and how?
Who will be gracious? Who of many give us bliss? Who out of all the Host
will come to lend us aid?
The will and thoughts within my breast
exert their power: they yearn with love,
and fly to all the regions round.
