  1. (I)
    O Heart of Jesus out from Thee,
    A mighty stream is flowing,
    Of God's sweet grace and blessings,
    And his mercies over flowing.
    Oh Sacred Heart then keep my soul,
    From every thing defiled,
    The little while I am to stay,
    Make me Thy grateful child.

    (II)
    Oh Heart of Jesus kindly grant,
    That I at length may see,
    With radiant orbs made heavenly bright
    The way that leads to Thee,
    That I may fill some vacant place,
    Before Thy heavenly throne,
    And that my heart unsullied,
    May find rest within Thy known.

    (III)
    Oh when I think as oft I do,
    How good God is to me,
    My Heart with rapture clings to Thee,
    Thy glory there to see,
    That I may love Thee in my soul,
    For thou hast been so kind,
    And thank Thee for they blessings all,
    Which I can bring to mind.
