English text

I bind my heart this tide
To the Galilean’s side,
To the wounds of Calvary,
To the Christ who died for me.

I bind my soul this day
To the brother far away,
And the stranger near at hand,
In this town and in this land.

I bind my heart in thrall
to the God, the Lord of all,
To the God, the poor man’s friend,
and the Christ whom he did send.
Amen.
