Jesus, Lord, be Thou mine own
Mondo, piu, per me non sei

Communion Hymn
St. Alphonsus
Don Lorenzo Perosi
Tr. Rev. E. Vaughan, C. SS. R.

Moderato

1.
Jesus Lord, be Thou mine own;
Thee I long for, Thee alone;
All myself, I give to Thee;
Do whate'er Thou wilt with me.

2.
Life without Thy love would be
Death, O Sovereign Good, to me;
Bound and held by Thy dear chains
Captive now my heart remains.

3.
Thou, O God, my heart inflame,
Give that love which Thou dost claim;
Payment I will ask for none;
Love demands but love alone.

4.
God of beauty, Lord of Light,
Thy good will is my delight;
Now henceforth Thy will divine
Ever shall in all be mine.
