Rhyme Scheme: ABBB CDDE FGGG HIIJ

Thou drinkest deepA
When Christ would supB
He drain'd the dregs from out my cupB
So how should I be lifted upB
-
Thou shalt win GloryC
In the skiesD
Lord Jesus cover up mine eyesD
Lest they should look on vanitiesE
-
Thou shalt have KnowledgeF
Helpless dustG
In Thee O Lord I put my trustG
Answer Thou for me Wise and JustG
-
And MightH
Get thee behind me LordI
Who hast redeem'd and not abhorr'dI
My soul oh keep it by Thy WordJ
