It al­so ap­peared in the ''Po­es­i­as'' of The­re­sa de Je­sus (1515-1582), show­ing her as the au­thor, but was not in in her ''Lib­ros'' (Lis­bon: 1616), ''Ob­ras'' (Lis­bon: 1654), or ''Op­era'' (Köln, Ger­m­any: 1686). Jul­i­an be­lieved the La­tin form was prob­ab­ly by Xavier or by a Ger­man Je­su­it. A trans­la­tion of the La­tin lyr­ics was pub­lished in 1668 in ''Heil­i­ge Seel­en­lust'', by Jo­hann Scheff­ler, cred­it­ing Xa­vier as the au­thor. <br>

1.
My God, I love Thee; not because
I hope for Heav’n thereby,
Nor yet because who love Thee not
May eternally die.

2.
Thou, O my Jesus, Thou didst me
Upon the cross embrace;
For me didst bear the nails and spear,
And manifold disgrace.

3.
And griefs and torments numberless,
And sweat of agony;
E’en death itself; and all for man
Who was Thine enemy.

4.
Then why, O blessèd Jesus Christ
Should I not love Thee well?
Not for the hope of winning Heaven,
Nor of escaping hell.

5.
Not with the hope of gaining aught,
Nor seeking a reward,
But as Thyself hast lovèd me,
O everlasting Lord!

6.
E’en so I love Thee, and will love,
And in Thy praise will sing,
Solely because Thou art my God,
And my eternal King.

Lyrics: Author unknown (O Deus, ego amo te); translated from Latin to English by Edward Caswall, Lyra Catholica, 1849.
