When the world is brightest,
and our hearts are lighest,
blessèd Jesus, hear us!
Let thy hand be near us!
When life's scene is shaded,
all its bright hopes faded,
blessèd Jesus, hear us!
Light of heaven, be near us!
When with blessings sated,
or by praise elated,
blessèd Jesus, hear us!
Let thy cross be near us!
When our foes surround us,
while our sins have bound us,
blessèd Jesus, hear us!
Let thy help be near us!
When the night of sorrow,
makes us dread tomorrow,
blessèd Jesus, hear us!
Light of heaven, be near us!
