Thoughts during the sacrament

When thou knelt in Gethsamane,
Did thy thoughts turn unto me?
Did I, thou holy, meek and kind,
Cross thy perfect, loving mind?

I would be that blessed being,
Comforting thy suffering.
That I in some minuted way
Could my debt to thee repay.

I know through thy sacrifice, Lord,
I all peace and joy afford.
I would that through me thou could bless
Others with this happiness.

Oh, let me be thy earthly hands!
Bend my pride to thy commands.
I pray to lose all thought of me,
In my service unto thee.
