O Jesus, Joy of Loving Hearts

Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 558 hymnals Scripture: Romans 10:13 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, joy of loving hearts, the fount of life, the light of men, from fullest bliss that earth imparts we turn unfilled to you again. 2 Your truth unchanged has ever stood; you save all those who on you call. To those who seek you, you are good; to those who find you, all in all. 3 We taste you, ever-living Bread, and long to feast upon you still; we drink of you, the fountainhead, our thirst to quench, our souls to fill. 4 Our restless spirits yearn for you where'er our changeful lot is cast; glad when you smile on us anew, blest that our faith can hold you 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 your holy light!
