Author: Frederick William Faber, 1814-1863 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #599b (2010) Meter: 6.5.6.5 Lyrics: 1 Jesu, gentlest Saviour,
thou art in us now,
fill us with thy goodness,
till our hearts o’erflow.
2 Multiply our graces,
chiefly love and fear,
and, dear Lord, the chiefest,
grace to persevere.
3 Oh, how can we thank thee
for a gift like this,
gift that truly maketh
heaven’s eternal bliss!
4 Ah! when wilt thou always
make our hearts thy home?
We must wait for heaven;
then the day will come. Topics: Sacraments and Other Occasions Holy Communion Languages: English Tune Title: EUCHARISTICUS
