Jesus, My Love, My Chief Delight,
For Thee I Long, For Thee I Pray,
Amid The Shadows Of The Night,
Amid The Business Of The Day.
When Shall I See Thy Smiling Face,
That Face Which I Have Often Seen?
Arise, Thou Sun Of Righteousness!
Scatter The Clouds That Intervene.
Thou Art The Glorious Gift Of God,
To Sinners Weary And Distressed;
The First Of All His Gifts Bestowed,
And Certain Pledge Of All The Rest.
Since I Can Say This Gift Is Mine,
I’ll Tread The World Beneath My Feet,
No More At Poverty Repine,
Nor Envy The Rich Sinner’s State.
