Author: Ray Palmer, 1808 - 87; St. Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091 - 1153 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #483a (1958) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thou Joy of loving hearts,
Thou fount of life, thou Light of men,
From the best bliss that earth imparts
We turn unfilled to thee again.
2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood;
Thou savest those that on thee call;
To them that seek thee thou art good,
To them 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 Fountainhead,
And thirst our souls from thee to fill. A-men.
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.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Epiphany; Holy Communion; The Life in Christ Aspiration; The Life In Christ Contemplation Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTE REDEMPTOR
