Author: St. Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091-1155; Ray Palmer, 1808-1887 Hymnal: Catholic Book of Worship III #654 (1994) Scripture: John 7:34-39 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, joy of loving hearts,
The font of life and our true light,
We seek the peace your love imparts
And stand rejoicing in your sight.
2 Your truth unchanged has ever stood;
You save all those who heed your call;
To those who seek you, you are good,
To those who find you, all in all.
3 We taste you, Lord, our living bread,
And long to feast upon you still;
We drink of you, the fountainhead,
Our thirsting souls to quench and fill.
4 For you our restless spirits yearn
Until your face we see at last;
Glad, when your presence we discern,
Blest, when our faith can hold you fast.
5 O Jesus, ever with us stay;
Make all our moments calm and bright;
O cast the night of sin away,
Shed o'er the world your holy light. Topics: Jesus; Thirsting for God; Truth Languages: English Tune Title: FULDA (WALTON)
