Jesus, thou joy of loving hearts
Author: Ray Palmer (1808-1887) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 559 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 3:3 Lyrics: 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. Topics: The Church Celebrates Holy Communion; Longing Used With Tune: MARYTON Text Sources: 12th century

God of glory, Lord of love;
Hearts unfold like flow'rs before thee,
Op'ning to the sun above.

Drive the dark of doubt away;
Giver of immortal gladness,
Fill us with the light of day.

Earth and heav'n reflect thy rays,
Stars and angels sing around thee,
Center of unbroken praise;
Field and forest, vale and mountain,
Flow'ry meadow, flashing sea,
Chanting bird and flowing fountain,
Call us to rejoice in thee.
3 Thou art giving and forgiving,
Ever blessing, ever blest,
Well-spring of the joy of living,
Ocean depth of happy rest!
Thou our Father, Christ our brother,
All who live in love are thine;
Teach us how to love each other,
Lift us to the joy divine.
4 Mortals, join the mighty chorus
Which the morning stars began;
Love divine is reigning o’er us,
Binding all within its span.
Ever singing, march we onward,
Victors in the midst of strife;
Joyful music leads us sunward,
In the triumph song of life. Topics: Creation; Creation; Creation; Joy; Music Ministry; Power of God; Praise; Service Music for Mass Entrance Song (Gathering of Processional); Morning Prayer Hymn Used With Tune: HYMN TO JOY

for who aught to my charge shall lay?
Fully absolved through these I am
from sin and fear, from guilt and shame.
3 Jesus, be endless praise to thee,
whose boundless mercy hath for me–
for me a full atonement made,
an everlasting ransom paid.
4 O let the dead now hear thy voice;
now bid thy banished ones rejoice;
their beauty this, their glorious dress,
Jesus, thy blood and righteousness.
