The Indian Advocate
VOL XVI. JUNE. NO 6
To the Heart of Jesus.
Dearest Jesus throned in glory purest sweetest undefiled
Tender Father list in pity to the pleadings of Thy child.
All on earth seems cold and dreary O how glad my soul would flee
From its empty vain illusions and take up sweet rest with Thee.
Thee alone to love and worship Thee alone to servo and praise
Thee to fill my heart with rapture through the joy of endless days.
Look Ye down upon my longings touch my heart's accordant strings.
Till they vibrate forth in joyous praises of my heavenly King.
Take O take my heart dear Jesus poor and sinful though it be
Naught can satisfy its longings none can comfort it but Thee.
Take it to thy sacred Besom fill it with Thy grace divine
Keep it close in Thy possession let its every throb be Thine
Sever from it worldly longings keep ambition's strain away
Feed it with They Heart's desires Thy bright love's celestial ray.
Let it know Thy dearest wishes let it nurse Thy weary cares
Let it tell Thee of its ardor let it whisper loving prayers
Let it soothe Thee in Thy passion heal Thy loving Sacred Heart
For the opened wounds an bleeding suff' ring from sin's cruel dart.
Take my heart. O sweetest Jesus place it close within Thy Own
For it joys in Thy endearment nil its worldly ways are flown.
Let it know Thy fond desires let it breathe Thy lovft divine
Till each accent throb pulsation beats in unison with Thine
Till it shares Thy eager longing knows Thy sorrows and Thy pain
Till it feels Thy burning ardor and reflects it back again.
Till the heart cords wend together till our dearest loves combine
Till my heart's impassioned fire leaps aflame one heart with Thine.
