Happy the man who knows

Verse 1
Happy the man who knows
His heart is not his own,
And chearfully what God bestows
Restores to God alone:
Not on the world misplac’d,
Not to the creatures given,
His heart which hath the Lord embrac’d
Injoys a constant heaven.

Verse 2
Jesus, I own my heart
Was made for only Thee;
Worthy of all its love Thou art,
Its whole capacity:
O never let me rest,
Till I thyself receive,
And with thy joyous presence blest
The life of angels live.
