Deck Thyself, My Soul, With Gladness,
Leave The Gloomy Haunts Of Sadness.
Come Into The Daylight’s Splendor;
There With Joy Thy Praises Render
Unto Christ, Whose Grace Unbounded
Hath This Wondrous Banquet Founded.
High O’er All The Heavens He Reigned,
Yet To Dwell With Thee He Designed.
Sun, Who All My Life Dost Brighten;
Light, Who Dost My Soul Enlighten;
Joy, The Best That Any Knoweth;
Fount, Whence All My Being Flowed;
At Thy Feet I Cry, My Maker,
Let Me Be A Fit Partaker
Of This Blessed Food From Heaven,
For Our Good, Thy Glory, Given.
Jesus, Bread Of Life, I Pray Thee,
Let Me Gladly Here Obey Thee;
Never To My Hurt Invited,
Be Thy Love With Love Requited.
From This Banquet Let Me Measure,
Lord, How Vast And Deep Its Treasure;
Through The Gifts Thou Here Dost Give Me,
As Thy Guest In Heaven Receive Me.
