Author: Bernard of Clairvaux, 1019-1153; Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #116 (1957) Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, King most wonderful,
Thou Conqueror renowned!
Thou Sweetness most ineffable,
In whom all joys are found!
2 When once Thou visitest the heart,
The truth begins to shine,
Then earthly vanities depart,
Then kindles love divine.
3 O Jesus! Light of all below,
Thou Fount of life and fire!
Surpassing all the joys we know,
All that we can desire.
4 Thy wondrous mercies are untold,
Through each returning day;
Thy love exceeds a thousand fold,
Whatever we can say.
5 Thee may our tongues forever bless,
Thee may we love alone;
And ever in our lives express
The image of Thine Own.
Amen. Topics: Adoration; Worship Languages: English Tune Title: SERENITY
O Jesus, King Most Wonderful!
