Jesu, the very thought of thee
Author: Anonymous; Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #256 (2010) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: PART ONE -
1 Jesu, the very thought of thee
with sweetness fills the breast;
but sweeter far thy face to see,
and in thy presence rest.
2 No voice can sing, no heart can frame,
nor can the memory find,
a sweeter sound than Jesu's name,
the Saviour of mankind.
3 O hope of every contrite heart,
O joy of all the meek,
to those who ask how kind thou art,
how good to those who seek!
4 But what to those who find? Ah, this
nor tongue nor pen can show;
the love of Jesus, what it is
none but his loved ones know.
5 Jesu, our only joy be thou,
as thou our prize wilt be;
in thee be all our glory now,
and through eternity.
PART TWO -
6 O Jesu, King most wonderful,
thou Conqueror renowned,
thou sweetness most ineffable,
in whom all joys are found!
7 When once thou visitest the heart,
then truth begins to shine,
then earthly vanities depart,
then kindles love divine.
8 Thee, Jesu, may our voices bless,
thee may we love alone,
and ever in our lives express
the image of thine own.
9 Abide with us, and let thy light
shine, Lord, on every heart;
dispel the darkness of our night,
and joy to all impart.
10 Jesu, our love and joy, to thee,
the Virgin's holy Son,
all might and praise and glory be,
while endless ages run. Topics: General Hymns God the Son Languages: English Tune Title: ST AGNES (DYKES)
Jesu, the very thought of thee
Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #272 (2010) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,
with all thy quickening powers;
kindle a flame of sacred love
in these cold hearts of ours.
2 See how we trifle here below,
fond of these earthly toys;
our souls, how heavily they go,
to reach eternal joys.
3 In vain we tune our formal songs,
in vain we strive to rise;
hosannas languish on our tongues,
snd our devotion dies.
4 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove,
with all thy quickening powers;
come, shed abroad a Saviour’s love,
snd that shall kindle ours.

Jesu, the very thought of thee
Shall we not love thee, mother dear
Author: Henry Williams Baker, 1821-1877 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #747 (2010) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Shall we not love thee, mother dear,
whom Jesus loves so well?
And, to his glory, year by year,
thy joy and honour tell?
2 Bound with the curse of sin and shame
we helpless sinners lay,
until in tender love he came
to bear the curse away.
3 And thee he chose from whom to take
true flesh his flesh to be;
in it to suffer for our sake,
by it to make us free.
4 Thy Babe he lay upon thy breast,
to thee he cried for food;
thy gentle nursing soothed to rest
th'Incarnate Son of God.
5 O wondrous depth of love divine,
that he should bend so low!
And, Mary, oh, what joy was thine
in his dear love to know;
6 joy to be mother of the Lord,
and thine the truer bliss,
in every thought, and deed, and word
to be for ever his.
7 And as he loves thee, mother dear,
we too will love thee well;
and, to his glory, year by year,
thy joy and honour tell.
8 Jesu, the virgin's holy Son,
we praise thee and adore,
who art with God the Father One
and Spirit evermore. Topics: Saints' and Other Holy Days The Blessed Virgin Mary Languages: English Tune Title: ST AGNES (DYKES)
