O Jesus, Joy of Loving Hearts
Author: St. Bernard of Clairvaux, 1091-1155; Ray Palmer, 1808-1887 Appears in 584 hymnals Topics: Thirsting for God Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, joy of loving hearts,
The font of life and our true light,
We seek the peace your love imparts
And stand rejoicing in your sight.
2 Your truth unchanged has ever stood;
You save all those who heed your call;
To those who seek you, you are good,
To those who find you, all in all.
3 We taste you, Lord, our living bread,
And long to feast upon you still;
We drink of you, the fountainhead,
Our thirsting souls to quench and fill.
4 For you our restless spirits yearn
Until your face we see at last;
Glad, when your presence we discern,
Blest, when our faith can hold you fast.
5 O Jesus, ever with us stay;
Make all our moments calm and bright;
O cast the night of sin away,
Shed o'er the world your holy light. Scripture: Matthew 4:1-16 Used With Tune: FULDA (WALTON) Text Sources: Sabbath Hymn Book, 1858, alt.
O Jesus, Joy of Loving Hearts
Come Down, O Love Divine
Author: Bianco da Siena, d. 1434; Richard Frederick Littledale, 1833-1890 Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: Thirsting for God Lyrics: 1 Come down, O Love divine,
Seek now this soul of mine,
And visit it with your own ardor glowing;
O Comforter, draw near,
Within my heart appear,
And kindle it, your holy flame bestowing.
2 O let it freely burn,
Till earthly passions turn
To dust and ashes in its heat consuming;
And let your glorious light
Shine ever on my sight,
And clothe me round, the while my path illuming.
3 And so the yearning strong,
With which the soul will long,
Shall far outpass the power of human telling;
For none can guess its grace,
Till we become the place
Wherein the Holy Spirit makes a dwelling.

As pants the hart
Appears in 351 hymnals Topics: Discouragement / Despair; Grace; Healing / Health; Hope; Lament; Longing for God and Christ; Metrical Psalms; Thirst; Trust First Line: As pants the hart for cooling streams Lyrics: 1 As pants the hart for cooling streams
when heated in the chase,
so longs my soul, O God, for thee
and thy refreshing grace.
2 For thee, my God, the living God,
my thirsty soul doth pine:
oh when shall I behold thy face,
thou majesty divine?
3 Why restless, why cast down, my soul?
Trust God, who will employ
sure aid for thee, and change these sighs
to thankful hymns of joy.
4 God of my strength, how long shall I,
like one forgotten, mourn,
forlorn, forsaken and exposed
to my oppressor's scorn?
5 Why restless, why cast down, my soul?
Hope still, and thou shalt sing
praise to thy God, the living God,
thy health's eternal spring.

1 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"Come unto me and rest;
Lay down, O weary one, lay down
Your head upon my breast."
I came to Jesus as I was,
So weary, worn, and sad;
I found in him a resting place,
And he has made me glad.
2 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"Behold, I freely give
The living water: thirsty one,
Stoop down and drink and live."
I came to Jesus, and I drank
Of that life-giving stream;
My thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
And now I live in him.
3 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"I am this dark world's light;
Look unto me, our morn shall rise,
And all your day be bright."
I looked to Jesus, and I found
In him my star, my sun;
And in that light of life I'll walk
Till trav'ling days are done.

1 Oí la voz del Salvador
Decir con tierno amor:
"¡Oh! ven a mí, descansarás;
Soy tu consolador."
Cansado estaba, y sin tardar,
A Cristo acudí,
Y luego dulce alivio y pas
Por fe yo recibí.
2 Oí la voz del Salvador
Decir: "Venid, bebed;
Yo soy la fuente de salud
Que apaga toda sed."
Con sed de Dios, del vivo Dios,
Busqué al Salvador;
Lo hallé, mi sed el apagó,
Y hoy vivo en mi Señor.
3 Oí su dulce voz decir:
"Del mundo soy la luz;
"¡Oh! mírame, te salvaré;
Hay vida por mi cruz."
Mirando a Cristo, luego en él
Mi norte y sol hallé;
Y en esa luz de vida y paz
Por siempre viviré.
