| And wish each beam | E |
| My soul doth stream | E |
| With the like ardour shin'd | D |
| What emanations | F |
| Quick vibrations | F |

| Are a fiery liquid light | I |
| Which mingling aye | J |
| Streams and flames thus to the sight | I |
| Come then my God | K |
| Shine on this blood | L |
| And water in one beam | E |
| And Thou shalt see | F |
| Kindled by Thee | F |
| Both liquors burn and stream | E |
| O what bright quickness | F |
| Active brightness | F |
| And celestial flows | F |
| Will follow after | M |
| On that water | M |
| Which Thy Spirit blows | F |
