Page 77 - JESUS, Thou Joy of loving hearts ! Thou Fount of life ! Thou Light of men ! From the best bliss that earth imparts, We turn unfilled to Thee again. 2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood ; Thou savest those that on Thee call ; To them that seek Thee, Thou art good, To them that find Thee, All in All...
Page 78 - Our restless spirits yearn for Thee, Where'er our changeful lot is cast ; Glad, when Thy gracious smile we see : Blest, when our faith can hold Thee fast. O Jesu, ever with us stay ! Make all our moments calm and bright ! Chase the dark night of sin away, Shed o'er the world Thy holy light ! Amen.

Page 47 - Jesus, that it may be with me, and labour with me, and continue with me unto the end. Grant me always to will and desire that which is most acceptable to Thee, and which pleaseth Thee best. Let Thy will be mine, and let my will always follow Thine, and agree perfectly with it. Let me always will or not will the same with Thee : and let me not be able to will or not to will otherwise than as Thou wiliest or wiliest not.
Page 44 - Set thyself therefore, like a good and faithful servant of Christ, to bear manfully the Cross of thy Lord, who out of love was crucified for thee.
Page 39 - Cross is infusion of heavenly sweetness ; in the Cross is strength of mind ; in the Cross is joy of spirit.
