O LORD JESUS, I ADORE THEE
Author(s): Jonas
Songbook: Love Songs Songbook
KeyWords: Christmas,

O Lord Jesus, I adore Thee
For the Bread of worth untold,
Freely given in Thy communion,
Wonderful a thousand fold.
Given today in loving bounty,
More than my poor heart can hold.
O Lord Jesus, I adore Thee
For the Bread of worth untold.

Come, O come, life-giving Manna,
Making glad my wilderness.
Come and make my soul an orchard,
Quickened into fruitfulness.
Sweeter far than any sweetness,
Tongue can taste or words express.
Come, O come life-giving Manna,
Making glad my wilderness.

O Lord Jesus, so forgiving,
How I love to love Thee more.
Make me turn from whatsoever
Will not with Thy Name accord.
Act through me in every action,
Speak through me in every word.
O Lord Jesus, so forgiving,
How I love to love Thee more.

You will stay and keep me always,
In my heart eternally.
Thou and only Thou art giving
Every thought and wish in me.
All my soul desires daily
To live more and more for Thee.
You will stay and keep me always,
In my heart eternally.
