Lord Jesus, joy of loving hearts
Author: Ray Palmer, 1808-87 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 559 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, joy of loving hearts,
true fount of life, our lives sustain,
from any bliss that earth imparts
we turn unfilled to you again.
2 Your truth unchanged has ever stood,
you save all those who on you call,
to those yet seeking you are good,
to those who find you, all in all.
3 We taste you, Lord, the living bread,
and long to feast upon you still,
we drink of you, the fountainhead,
and thirst our souls from you to fill.
4 For you our restless spirits yearn,
whatever comes, until the last,
glad when your presence we discern,
blest when our faith can hold you fast.
5 For ever, Jesus, with us stay,
make all our moments calm and bright,
chase the dark night of sin away,
shed on this world your holy light.

Lord Jesus, joy of loving hearts
O thou who camest from above
Author: C. Wesley (1707-1788) Appears in 176 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O thou who camest from above
the pure celestial fire to impart,
kindle a flame of sacred love
on the mean altar of my heart!
2 There let it for thy glory burn
with inextinguishable blaze;
and trembling to its source return,
in humble prayer and fervent praise.
3 Jesus, confirm my heart's desire
to work and speak and think for thee;
still let me guard the holy fire,
and still stir up thy gift in me:
4 Ready for all thy perfect will,
my acts of faith and love repeat,
till death thy endless mercies seal
and make the sacrifice complete. Topics: God's Church Doxology, Glory to God Used With Tune: HEREFORD

Jesuo Parolas
Author: D. Matthews Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Infanoj, ho infanoj miaj Lyrics: 1. Infanoj, ho infanoj miaj!
Ĉu vi ne aŭdas min vokantan?
Ho, levu sin okuloj viaj!
Aŭskultu, aŭdu min plorantan.
2. Ja vane pacon vi sopiras,
Preĝante el la tuta mondo,
Se tamen ĉiu nur deziras,
Ke venka estu lia rondo.
3. Soldatoj, interbatalanta,
Murdante unu la alian,
Petegas, laŭte min vokante,
La helpon kaj la benon mian.
4. Kaj ĉiu kredas sin la prava,
Ĉar "sankta estas la afero" —
Proklamas la malvenkon sklava,
Semante pacon sur la tero!
5. Infanoj! viaj vortoj pikas
La koron mian sangadantan,
Kaj viaj preĝoj ne efikas:
Mi aŭdas preĝon nur amantan.
6. "Pardonu" estis mia vorto,
"Pardonu viajn malamikojn."
Nur amo estas vera forto:
Ĝi sola havas bonefikojn.
7. Pripensu, do, infanoj miaj!
Ĉesigu vian bataladon.
Min ne atingas vortoj viaj;
Mi ne aŭskultas malamadon.
8. Denove nun vi min krucumas,
Per akra glavo min tranĉante;
Ne miajn vortojn vi plenumas,
Kunhomojn tiel mortigante. Topics: Call to Pacifism Used With Tune: HEREFORD Text Sources: HE 207
