Lyrics
Verse 1
Jesus,
Thou joy of loving hearts,
Thou fount of life,
Thou light of men, from all the bliss that earth imparts we turn unfilled to Thee again.
Verse 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.
Verse 3
On Thee we feed,
Thou living bread, and long to feast upon Thee still; we drink of Thee,
Thou fountainhead, whose streams each thirsting soul can fill.
Verse 4
On Jesus, ever with us stay, make all our moments calm and bright; chase the dark night of sin away, shed o'er the world Thy holy light.
