一 耶穌，只要一想到祢，我心就滿甘甜；
但這甘甜還遠不及親眼看見祢面。
二 無口能唱，無心能思，也無記性能憶 。
一種聲音比祢名字更為甘甜、可喜。
三 祢是痛悔者的希望，溫柔者的喜樂；
祢對尋求者何善良，跌倒者何仁德。
四 但對尋得祢者如何？無口無筆能述；
耶穌的愛，其深、其闊，惟被愛者略熟。
五 耶穌！祢是世人之光，祢是生命之源！
遠超一切我所能享、一切我所能羡。
六 祢外我無別的源頭 能解我心乾渴；
無窮寶泉！活水湧流！別流全都乾涸。
七 耶穌，祢今是我喜樂，將來是我賞賜；
祢是我的榮耀、詩歌，從今直到永世。
1. Jesus, the very thought of Thee,
With sweetness fills my breast;
But sweeter far Thy face to see,
And in Thy presence rest.
2. Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame,
Nor can the mem'ry find
A sweeter sound than Thy blest Name,
O Savior of mankind!
3. O Hope of every contrite heart,
O Joy of all the meek,
To those who fall, how kind Thou art!
How good to those who seek!
4. But what to those who find? Ah, this
Nor tongue nor pen can show;
The love of Jesus, what it is
None but His loved ones know.
5. O Jesus, light of all below!
Thou fount of life and fire!
Surpassing all the joys we know,
And all we can desire.
6 No other source have we but Thee,
Soul-thirst to satisfy.
Exhaustless spring! the waters free!
All other streams are dry.
7 Jesus, our only Joy be Thou,
As Thou our Prize wilt be;
Jesus, be Thou our Glory now,
And through eternity.
