O Jesus! thou the beauty art
Of angel-worlds above;
Thy name is music to the heart,
Enchanting it with love.
O Jesus, Saviour! hear the sighs
Which unto thee I send;
To thee my inmost spirit cries,
My being’s hope and end.
Stay with us, Lord, and with thy light
Illume the soul’s abyss;
Scatter the darkness of our night,
And fill the world with bliss.
O Jesus, King of earth and heaven,
Our life and joy! to thee
Be honour, thanks, and blessing given
Through all eternity!
