Isaac Watts - Hymn 15Isaac Watts - Hymn 15
Work rating: Low


The enjoyment of Christ; or, Delight in worship. Far from my thoughts, vain world, begone, Let my religious hours alone: Fain would my eyes my Savior see; I wait a visit, Lord, from thee. My heart grows warm with holy fire, And kindles with a pure desire: Come, my dear Jesus, from above, And feed my soul with heav`nly love. [The trees of life immortal stand In fragrant rows at thy right hand; And in sweet murmurs, by their side, Rivers of bliss perpetual glide. Haste, then, but with a smiling face, And spread the table of thy grace; Bring down a taste of fruit divine, And cheer my heart with sacred wine.] Blest Jesus, what delicious fare! How sweet thy entertainments are! Never did angels taste above Redeeming grace, and dying love. Hail, great Immanuel, all divine! In thee thy Father`s glories shine; Thou brightest, sweetest, fairest one, That eyes have seen or angels known.
