Jesus, thou joy of loving hearts

Author: Ray Palmer (1808-1887) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 555 hymnals Scripture: Revelation 22:17 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thou joy of loving hearts, thou light of life, thou fount of grace: from the best bliss that earth imparts we turn unfilled to seek thy face. 2 Thy truth unchanged has ever stood; thou savest those that on thee call: to those that seek thee thou art good, to those that find thee, all in all. 3 We taste thee, O thou living bread, and long to feast upon thee still; we drink of thee, the fountain-head, and thirst our souls from thee to fill. 4 Our restless spirits yearn for thee, where'er our changeful lot is cast, glad when thy gracious smile we see, blest when our faith can hold thee 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 thy holy light.

O Righteous Branch, O Jesse's Rod, the Son of Man and Son of God! we too will lift our voices: Jesus, Jesus, holy, holy, yet most lowly, come, draw near us; great Immanuel, come and hear us. 2 Though circled by the hosts on high, he deigned to cast a pitying eye upon his helpless creature. The whole creation's head and Lord, by highest seraphim adored, assumed our very nature; Jesus, grant us, through your merit, to inherit your salvation. Hear, O hear our supplication. 3 Rejoice, O heavens, and earth, reply; with praise, O sinners, fill the sky for this, his incarnation. Incarnate God, put forth your power, ride on, ride on, great Conqueror, till all know your salvation. Amen, amen! Alleluia, alleluia! Praise be given evermore by earth and heaven.
