1 Jesus, thou joy of loving hearts,
thou light of life, thou fount of grace:
from the best bliss that earth imparts
we turn unfilled to seek thy face.

2 Thy truth unchanged has ever stood;
thou savest those that on thee call:
to those that seek thee thou art good,
to those 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 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.
