Poems (Kimball)/A Hymn of Adoration

by Harriet McEwen Kimball

A HYMN OF ADORATION.

JESUS, Jesus, Jesus,
 High and lowly Son;
Son of blessed Mary
 And of God in one;
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Hail, O Son!

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Living Bread Divine,
Feast for holy hunger,
 Be that hunger mine;
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Bread Divine!

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Fount forever filled,
In Thy streams of mercy
 Shall my thirst be stilled.
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Fount once filled!

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Spotless Lamb once slain,
Yet for us unceasing
 Offerèd again;
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Lamb once slain!

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Victim, Priest, and :Lord;
Endless satisfaction
 Endlessly adored;
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Saviour, Lord!

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Name of names most sweet
Tremble with thanksgiving,
 Tongue that may repeat—
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 Name most sweet.

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 God of God art Thou;
Low in adoration
 At Thy Name we bow;
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
 God are Thou!

Father, Son, and Spirit,
 Blessed Three in One
Whose unending praises
 Never were begun;
Holy, Holy, Holy,
 Three in One!
