Our watch we keep before your throne
Our fervent love to you we own;
No tie of earth can separate,
Our souls from watching at your gate.
Temptation's pow'r shall naught avail,
To draw us from you, Holy Grail!

In you we find our souls content,
Your grace ensures sins's banishment.
Each day you come into our hearts,
Each day your strength impart.
Temptation's pow'r shall naught avail,
To draw us from you, Holy Grail!

Our watch on earth a pledge shall be,
Of heaven in eternity.
O Lamb of God, till life is done,
Till all our destined years have run.
Temptation's pow'r shall naught avail,
To draw us from you, Holy Grail!
