Jesu! the very thought is sweet;
Jesu! the very thought is sweet;
in that dear name all heart-joys meet;
In that dear name all heart-joys meet;
No word is sung more sweet than this,
No word is sung more sweet than this,
No sound is heard more full of bliss,
No sound is heard more full of bliss,

Jesu! the very thought is sweet;
In that dear name all heart-joys meet;
No word is sung more sweet than this,
No sound is heard more full of bliss,
Than Jesus, Jesus, Son of God most high.

St Bernard of Clairvaux (1091 - 1153)
translated by J M Neale
