Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

Jesus, the very thought of thee 
Jesus, the very thought of thee with sweetness fills the breast; but sweeter far thy face to see, and in thy presence rest. 
No voice can sing, no heart can frame, nor can the memory find, a sweeter sound than Jesus' Name, the Savior of mankind. 
O hope of every contrite heart, O joy of all the meek, to those who fall, how kind thou art: how good to those who seek! 
But what to those who find? Ah, this nor tongue nor pen can show; the love of Jesus, what it is, none but who love him know. 
Jesus, our only joy be thou, as thou our prize wilt be; in thee be all our glory now, and through eternity.
