Jesus, the very thought of Thee
Jesus, the very thought of Thee
Author: Edward Caswall; Bernard of Clairvaux, 1901-1153 Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #113 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the very thought of Thee
With gladness fills my breast;
But dearer far Thy face to see,
And in Thy presence rest,
And in Thy presence rest.
2 Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame,
Nor can the memory find
A sweeter sound than Thy blest name,
O Saviour of mankind!
O Saviour of mankind!
3 O Hope of every contrite heart,
O joy of all the meek!
To those who fall, how kind Thou art,
How good to those who seek!
How good to those who seek!
4 And those who find Thee, find a bliss
Nor tongue nor pen can show:
The love of Jesus--what it is,
None but His loved ones know,
None but His loved ones know.
5 Jesus, our only joy be Thou!
As Thou our prize wilt be;
Jesus, be Thou our glory now,
And through eternity!
And through eternity!

Jesus! the very thought of Thee
How short and hasty is our life!
Hymnal: Book of Worship #287 (1881) Languages: English Tune Title: MORAVIAN
How short and hasty is our life!
How short and hasty is our life!
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #372 (1899) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 How short and hasty is our life!
How vast our souls' affairs!
Yet senseless mortals vainly strive
To lavish out their years,
To lavish out their years.
2 Our days run thoughtlessly along,
Without a moment's stay;
Just like a story, or a song
We pass our lives away,
We pass our lives away.
3 God from on high invites us home,
But we march heedless on,
And ever hastening to the tomb,
Stoop downwards as we run,
Stoop downwards as we run.
4 How we deserve the deepest hell,
That slight the joys above!
What chains of vengeance should we feel,
That break such cords of love!
That break such cords of love!
5 Draw us, O Saviour, with Thy grace,
And lift our thoughts on high,
That we may end this mortal race,
And see salvation nigh,
And see salvation nigh.
Amen. Topics: Accepted Time; Brevity of Life; Gospel Call; Life Solemnity of Languages: English Tune Title: MORAVIAN
