Of all the joys we mortals know

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #390 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Of all the joys we mortals know, Jesus, thy love exceeds the rest; Love, the best blessing here below, The highest rapture of the blest. 2 While we are held in thy embrace, There's not a thought attempts to rove; Each smile that's seen upon thy face, Fixes, and charms, and fires our love. 3 When of thine absence we complain, And long, and weep, and humbly pray; There's a strange pleasure in the pain,-- Those tears are sweet which mourn thy stay. 4 When round thy courts by day we rove, Or ask the watchmen of the night For some kind tidings from above, Thy very name creates delight. 5 Jesus, our God, descend and come; Our eyes shall dwell upon thy face; 'Tis heav'n to see our Lord at home, And feel the presence of his grace. Topics: Christian experience Communion with Christ, and love to him; Love to Christ present or absent
