Jesus, Thou Joy of loving hearts, Thou Fount of life, Thou Light of men, From the best bliss that earth imparts, We turn unfilled to Thee again. |
2 |
Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood; Thou savest those that on Thee call; To them that seek Thee, Thou art good, To them that find Thee, all in all! |
3 |
We taste Thee, O Thou living Bread, And long to feast upon Thee still; We drink of Thee, the Fountain-head, And thirst our souls from Thee to fill! |
4 |
Our restless spirits yearn for Thee, Where'er our changeful lot is cast; Glad when Thy gracious smile we see, Blest, when our faith can hold Thee fast. |
5 |
O Lord, be Thou our strength and stay! Make all our moments calm and bright, Chase all dark thoughts of sin away, Shed o'er us here Thy holy light. |
