Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

Jesus, our hope, our heart's desire 
Jesus, our hope, our heart's desire, thy work of grace we sing; Redeemer of the world art thou, its Maker and its King. 
How vast the mercy and the love which laid our sins on thee, and led thee to a cruel death, to set thy people free! 
But now the bonds of death are burst; the ransom has been paid; and thou art on thy Father's throne, in glorious robes arrayed. 
O may thy mighty love prevail our sinful souls to spare! O may we stand around thy throne, and see thy glory there! 
Jesus, our only joy be thou, as thou our prize wilt be; in thee be all our glory now and through eternity. 
All praise to thee who art gone up triumphantly to heaven; all praise to God the Father's Name and Holy Ghost be given.
