Jesu Dulcis Memoria

Sweet memory of Jesus
Giving true joys of the heart
But above honey and all things
His sweet presence

Nothing is sung more sweetly
Nothing is heard more joyfully
Nothing is thought more sweetly
Than Jesus, Son of God

Jesus, hope of the penitent
How kind you are to those who seek!
How good to those who ask!
But what to those who find?

Neither tongue can tell
Nor letter express
One who has experienced can believe
What it is to love Jesus

Be Jesus our joy
Who will be our reward
May our glory be in you
Through all eternity
Amen
