O Jesus, Thou the Beauty Art |
THE MOST HOLY NAME O Jesus, Thou the beauty art Jesu, decus Angelicum St. Bernard Tr. Rev. E. Caswall Nicola A. Montani Andante religioso 1. O Jesus, Thou the beauty art Of Angel worlds above; Thy name is music to the heart Inflaming it with love Celestial sweetness unalloy'd Who eat Thee hunger still; Who drink of Thee still feel a void Which naught but Thee canst fill. 2. O my sweet Jesus, hear the sighs Which unto Thee I send; To Thee mine inmost spirit cries, My being's hope and end. Stay with us Lord, with Thy light Illume the soul's abyss; Dispel the darkness of the night And fill the world with bliss. Page 21-22
