and HYMNS

TO JESUS HEART ALL BURNING

O Jesus' Heart, all burning
With fervent love for men,
My heart with fondest yearning
Shall raise the joyful strain.

While ages course along,
Blest be with loudest song
The Sacred Heart of Jesus,
By every heart and tongue.

O Heart, for me on fire
With love no man can speak,
My yet untold desire,
God gives me for Thy sake.

While ages course along,
Blest be with loudest song
The Sacred Heart of Jesus,
By every heart and tongue.

Too true, I have forsaken
Thy flock by willful sin;
Yet now let me be taken
Back to Thy fold again.

While ages course along,
Blest be with loudest song
The Sacred Heart of Jesus,
By every heart and tongue.

HYMN TO THE SACRED HEART

O SACRED Heart! O Love Divine!
Do keep us near to Thee;
And make our love so like to Thine,
That we may holy be.

Heart of Jesus, hear!
O Heart of Love Divine!
Listen to our prayer:
Make us always Thine.
 
O Temple pure! O House of gold!
Our Heaven here below!
What sweet delights, what wealth untold,
From Thee do ever flow!

Heart of Jesus, hear!
O Heart of Love Divine!
Listen to our prayer:
Make us always Thine.

O wounded Heart! O Font of tears!
O Throne of grief and pain,
Whereon, for the eternal years,
Thy love for man doth reign!

Heart of Jesus, hear!
O Heart of Love Divine!
Listen to our prayer:
Make us always Thine.

Ungrateful hearts, forgetful hearts,
The hearts of men have been,
To wound Thy side with cruel darts
Which they have made by sin.

Heart of Jesus, hear!
O Heart of Love Divine!
Listen to our prayer:
Make us always Thine.

HEAR THE HEART OF JESUS PLEADING

HEAR the Heart of Jesus pleading,
"Come and sweetly rest in Me.
With a peace and joy exceeding;
Meek and humble ever be;
In My heart serene and holy,
All your selfish cares resign."
Dearest Jesus! meek and lowly,
Make, oh, make our hearts like Thine!
"Purer than the lily's whiteness,
Fairer than the fairest snows,
In the beauty and be brightness
Of your souls, I seek repose;
Calmly keep your hearts before Me,
From the stain of passion free."
Heart of Jesus! we implore Thee
Make, oh, make us pure like Thee!

SACRED HEART

O JESUS dear, Thy Sacred Heart
Is fraught with purest love.
Much joy to me the dost impart,
 And comfort from above.

O Sacred Heart, celestial feast
Of all the blessed above,
I hope in bliss Thy sweets to taste,
And glow with heavenly love.
 
Thy Sacred Heart was pierced for me,
 And bled at every pore!,
From past offenses set me free,
Oh! them I will deplore.

O Sacred Heart, celestial feast
Of all the blessed above,
I hope in bliss Thy sweets to taste,
And glow with heavenly love. 

A MESSAGE

A MESSAGE from the Sacred Heart!
What may this message be?
"My child, My child, give Me thy heart;
 My heart has bled for thee."

This is the message Jesus sends
To my poor heart today,
And from His throne in Heaven He bends
To hear what I shall say.

A MESSAGE from the Sacred Heart!
What may this message be?
"My child, My child, give Me thy heart;
 My heart has bled for thee."

A message to the Sacred Heart;
Oh! bear it back with speed:
"Come, Jesus, reign within my heart;
Thy heart is all I need."
This prayer I'll pray while here I pine,
From Heaven and Thee apart;
Nor cease, dear Lord, till I am Thine.
Forever, Heart to heart.

A MESSAGE from the Sacred Heart!
What may this message be?
"My child, My child, give Me thy heart;
 My heart has bled for thee."

HYMN TO THE SACRED HEART

O HEART of Jesus pierced for me,
Pierce with Thy love this heart of mine;
Let me with humble trust in Thee
Within Thy Sacred Wound recline.

For, O dear Lord, I love that Heart,
Which broke for me on Calvary's tree;
Temptation ne'er again shall part
My Saviour and His love from me.
 
Oh! give me, Lord, the grace to feel,
Still more of that devout intent,
Which loves its happiness to seal
In Thy Most Holy Sacrament.

For, O dear Lord, I love that Heart,
Which broke for me on Calvary's tree;
Temptation ne'er again shall part
My Saviour and His love from me.

A HYMN TO THE SACRED HEART
 
HEART of Jesus, we are grateful
For Thy answer to our prayer;
We have sought Thee ever hopeful
That Thy blessings we might share.
Thou hast heard us interceding
With Thy love which is untold,
And in answer to our pleading,
All Thy treasures dost unfold.

Heart of Jesus, we will thank Thee,
We will love Thee more and more;
Heart of Jesus, we will praise Thee,
And will thank Thee o'er and o'er.
 
Heart of Jesus, Thou hast taught us
How to seek and how to find;
And that lesson now has brought us
To Thy Heart so sweet and kind.
What we ask, with faith believing,
Thou hast pledged Thy word to give;
And Thy word is not deceiving,
But the truth by which we live.

Heart of Jesus, we will thank Thee,
We will love Thee more and more;
Heart of Jesus, we will praise Thee,
And will thank Thee o'er and o'er.


CLOSE VEILED IN THAT
SWEET SACRAMENT

CLOSE veiled in that sweet Sacrament, Our Jesus' Heart,
our treasure lies; 
Love's priceless, dearest testament
Is shrouded in that mystic guise.

Our Jesus left His realm of light,
On wings of love to
earth He's flown;
To dwell with us is His delight,
He makes our hearts His earthly throne.

O Sacred Heart, how sweet
'twould be,
If we could die for love of Thee!
O Sacred Heart, how sweet
'twould be,
If we could die for love of Thee!

Love is not loved! O Angels, weep;
Ye virgins chaste,
breathe bitter sighs;
O earth, be clothed in
mourning deep;
Withdraw your light, ye radiant skies:
For all, our souls' dear Spouse hath died,
For all, His Heart with love doth burn;
Yet this meek Saviour men deride,
And for His love make no return.

O Sacred Heart, how sweet 'twould be,
If we could die for love of Thee!
O Sacred Heart, how sweet 'twould be,
If we could die for love of Thee!

SWEET HEART OF JESUS

SWEET Heart of Jesus, source of love and mercy,
We beg of Thee, O Fount of living grace,
Oh! list to souls who humbly now implore Thee,
And make them Thine fore'ver, ever more.

Sweet Heart of Jesus, so humble and so mild,
Sweet Heart of Jesus, oh, make our hearts all Thine.

Would that our hearts, responding to Thy longings,
Were pure and simple, seeking none but Thee,
E'er self-forgetting, patient, meek and humble,
And loving Thee with pure seraphic love.

Sweet Heart of Jesus, so humble and so mild,
Sweet Heart of Jesus, oh, make our hearts all Thine.

 SWEET SACRAMENT

JESUS! My Lord, my God, my all!
How can I love Thee as I ought?
And how revere this wondrous gift,
So far surpassing hope or thought?
Sweet Sacrament! we Thee adore!
Oh, make us love Thee more and more!

Had I but Mary's sinless heart
To love Thee with, my dearest King!
Oh, with what bursts of fervent praise
Thy goodness, Jesus, would I sing!
Sweet Sacrament! we Thee adore!
Oh, make us love Thee more and more!
 
Oh, see! within holy priest's hand
The vast Creator deigns to be,
Reposing, infant-like, as though
On Joseph's arm or Mary's knee.
Sweet Sacrament! we Thee adore!
Oh, make us love Thee more and more!
