So many things in which I look for rest.

"O my soul, above all things and in all things always rest in the Lord,
for He is the eternal rest of the saints.

Grant me most sweet and loving Jesus, to rest in you
above every other creature,
above all health and beauty,
above all honor and glory,
above all power and dignity,
above all knowledge and precise thought,
above all wealth and talent,
above all joy and exultation,
above all fame and praise,
above all sweetness and consolation,
above all merit and desire,
above all gifts and favors,
above all happiness and joy,
above all angels and archangels,
above all the hosts of heaven,
above all things visible and invisible, and
above all that is not you, my God.

Come, come. Without you no day or hour will be happy,
for you are my joy, and without you my table is empty..."
