The Prayer, O Jesus, Thou The Beauty Art
O Jesus, Thou the beauty art
Of Angel worlds above!
Thy Name is music to the heart,
Enchanting it with love!
Celestial sweetness unalloyed!
Who eat Thee hunger still,
Who drink of Thee still feel a void
Which naught but Thou can fill!
O my sweet Jesus! hear the sighs
Which unto Thee I send!
To Thee my inmost spirit cries,
My being's hope and end!
Stay with us, Lord, and with Thy light
Illume the soul's abyss;
Scatter the darkness of our night
And fill the world with bliss.
O Jesus! spotless Virgin flower!
Our life and joy! to Thee
Be praise, beatitude and power,
Through all eternity!
Amen.
