Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Jesu, joy of man's desiring
Holy Wisdom, love, most bright
Drawn by Thee, our souls aspiring,
Soar to uncreated light.
Word of God our flesh that fashioned
With the Fire of Life impassioned
Striving still to Truth unknown
Soaring, dying round Thy throne
VERSE 2
Through the way where Hope is guiding
Hark what peaceful Music rings
Where the flock in Thee confiding,
Drink of Joy from deathless Spring
Theirs is beauty's fairest pleasure
Theirs is Wisdom's holiest treasure
Thou dost ever lead Thine own
in the love of Joys unknown
