Tune: | QUEBEC |
Composer: | Henry Baker |
1 Jesus, Thou Joy of loving hearts,
Thou Fount of life, Thou Light of all,
from the best bliss that earth imparts,
we turn unfilled to hear Thy call.
2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood;
Thou savest those that on Thee call;
to them that seek Thee, Thou art good,
to them who find Thee, all in all.
3 O 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.
