O my Jesus, be sweet to me

O my Jesus, be sweet to me

O my love, feel me washing thy feet
All Thy sorrows they rain down on me
Now derision and scorn be my crown of thorns
By an ordeal of blood am I fractured and torn
O my Jesus, be sweet to me
O my Jesus, be sweet to me

In the darkness Thou lifteth the veil
I receive Thee, my heart is Thy grail
I am humbled and high, I am soul I am sky
From the burial tomb to redemption in you
O my Jesus, be sweet to me
O my Jesus be sweet to me

Love me
Hold me
Release me
And unfold me
Kiss me
O kiss me
There is nought that I know
Except Divine bliss in Thee
O my Jesus, be sweet to me
O my Jesus, be sweet to me
