Jesus, My Lord, My God, My All
Words: Frederick W. Faber
Music: SWEET SACRAMENT, Traditional melody
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 and thought?
Sweet Sacrament! we Thee adore,
O make us love Thee more and more,
O make us love Thee more and more.
Had I but Mary's sinless heart
To love Thee with, my dearest King,
O with what bursts of fervent praise
Thy goodness, Jesus, would I sing!
Sweet Sacrament! we Thee adore,
O make us love Thee more and more,
O make us love Thee more and more.
Thy Body, Soul, and Godhead, all,
O mystery of love divine!
I cannot compass all I have,
For all Thou hast and art is mine!
Sweet Sacrament! we Thee adore,
O make us love Thee more and more,
O make us love Thee more and more.
Sound, sound His praises higher still,
And come, ye Angels, to our aid,
'Tis God! 'tis God! the very God,
Whose pow'r both men and angels made!
Sweet Sacrament! we Thee adore,
O make us love Thee more and more,
O make us love Thee more and more.
