Jesus, thou fairest, dearest One,
What beauties thee adorn!
Far brighter than the noon-day sun,
Or star that gilds the morn.
The joy of all the saints above,
And hope of all below;
Oh may I taste thy richest love,
And thine endearments know!
Here let me fix my wondering eyes,
And all thy glories trace;
‘Till in the world of endless joys,
I sink in thine embrace.
