O Jesus sweet, O Jesus mild,
Thy Father's will hast Thou fulfilled.
For thou hast left Thy heav'nly throne
Our lowly state to make Thine own.
O Jesus sweet, O Jesus mild.

O Jesus sweet, O Jesus mild,
With joy hast Thou the whole world filled;
Thou comest down from heavèn's hall
To comfort us whom tears enthrall.
O Jesus sweet, O Jesus mild.

O Jesus sweet, O Jesus mild,
Thou art love's image undefiled.
Inflame our hearts with love's pure fire,
That we may share Thy heart's desire.
O Jesus sweet, O Jesus mild.

O Jesus sweet, O Jesus mild,
Help us to do as Thou hast willed.
Whate'er we have belongs to Thee;
O may we ever faithful be.
O Jesus sweet, O Jesus mild.
