Grant me the peace that no one
Shall discover on their own,
For, only together
With You, Lord, does it descend
To quell my shipwreck,
Making its nest right from the wave
That swells to swallow me.
Then it comes to pass that the deep,
Which seemed to drown me,
Takes me in its arms, and lifts me,
Upon the calm of the tamed water,
So I may feel that all that touches me
Comes from the peace of Your Being.
