:Jesu dulcis memoria
{{LnkTxt|Jesu dulcis memoria|Anonymous}}
:Dans vera cordis gaudia:
:Sed super mel et omnia
:Ejus dulcis præsentia.
 
:Nil canitur suavius,
:Nil auditur jucundius
:Nil cogitatur dulcius
:Quam Jesus Dei filius.
 
:Jesu spes pænitentibus,
:Quam pius es petentibus!
:Quam bonus te quærentibus!
:Sed quid invenientibus?
 
:Nec lingua valet dicere,
:Nec littera exprimere:
:Expertus potest credere,
:Quid sit Jesum diligere.
 
:Sis Jesu nostrum gaudium
:Qui es futurus præmium
:Sit nostra in te gloria
:Per cuncta semper sæcula.

''by [[User:Mick Swithinbank|Mick Swithinbank]] and Jamie Reid Baxter.''
 
:Jesus, sweet remembrance,
:Granting the heart its true joys,
:But above honey and all things
:Is His sweet presence.
 
:Nothing more pleasing can be sung,
:Nothing gladder can be heard
:Nothing sweeter can be thought
:Than Jesus, son of God.
 
:Jesus, hope of the penitent,
:How merciful you are to those who ask,
:How good to those who seek,
:But O, what you are to those who find!
 
:Tongue has no power to describe
:Nor writings to express
:But only belief can know by experience
:What it is to love Jesus.
 
:Be our joy, O Jesus,
:Who will be the prize we win,
:May all our glory be in you, always
:And through all ages.
