Jesus My Lord
Jesus my Lord my God my All
How can I love thee as I ought
And how revere this wondrous gift
So far surpassing hope or thought
Sweet Sacrament we thee adore.
Oh make us love thee more and more *2
Had I but Mary’s sinless heart
To love thee with my dearest King
Oh with what bursts of fervent praise
Thy goodness Jesus would I sing.
Oh see up on the altar placed
The victim of divinest love
Let all the earth below adore
And join the choirs of heaven above
Jesus dear pastor of the fock
We crowd in love about thy feet
Our voices yearn to praise thee Lord
And joyfully thy presence greet.
Sound sound His praises higher still
And come ye angel to our aid
Tis God tis God the very God
Whose power both man and angels made.
