To Christ the Prince of Peace, And Son of God most high, The Father of the world to come, Sing we with holy joy. |
| 2 |
Deep in His heart, for us, The wound of love He bore; That love wherewith He still inflames The hearts that Him adore. |
| 3 |
O Jesu, victim blest, What else but love divine Could Thee constrain to open thus That Sacred Heart of thine? |
| 4 |
O fount of endless life, O spring of water clear, O flame celestial, cleansing all Who unto Thee draw near! |
| 5 |
Hide us in Thy dear heart, For thither do we fly; There seek Thy grace through life; in death Thine immortality. |
