1. Te, mi Deus, Amor meus, Amo super omnia!
Non me mundus fasci nabit Nae me caro dementabit;
Praeter te nil, Jesu amor, Corde, ore, Jesu clamo:
Te, mi Deus, Amor meus, Amo super omnia!

2. Te, mi Deus, Amor meus, Amo super omnia!
Quidwuid unquam cogitabo, Quidquid unquam anhelabo
Hos spirabit mensa mores, Hos fovebit cor ardores:
Te, mi Deus, Amor meus, Amo super omnia!

3. Te, mi Deus, Amor meus, Amo super omnia!
Non spe coeli gaudiorum, Nec ex metu tormentorum;
Peto tui ex amore, Corde dico, dico ore:
Te, mi Deus, Amor meus, Amo super omnia!
