Who would not love Thee with his might? O Jesus, Lover of mankind, Who would not his whole soul and mind, With all his strength, to Thee unite? 2. Thou shin'st with everlasting rays; Before the insufferable blaze Angels with both wings veil their eyes; Yet, free as air Thy bounty streams On all Thy works; Thy mercy's beams Diffusive, as Thy sun's, arise. 3. High throned on heaven's eternal hill, In number, weight, and measure still Thou sweetly orderest all that is: And yet Thou deign'st to come to me, And guide my steps, that I, with Thee Enthroned, may reign in endless bliss. 4. Fountain of good, all blessing flows From Thee; no want Thy fulness knows; What but Thyself canst Thou Yet, self-sufficient as Thou art, Thou dost desire my worthless heart; This, only this, dost Thou require. 5. O God, of good the unfathomed Sea! Who would not give his heart to Thee? Who would not love Thee with his might? O Jesus, Lover of mankind, Who would not his whole soul and mind, With all his strength, to Thee unite? Used With Tune: LUCERNE
