O Jesu süss, wer dein gedenkt, | |||
sein Herz mit Freude wird überschwenkt. | |||
Kein Süssigkeit zu finden ist, | |||
als wo du, Jesu, selber bist, | |||
Jesu, des Herzens Freud und Wonne, | |||
du Licht der Welt und Gnadensonne, | |||
dir gleichet nichts auf dieser Erden, | |||
in dir ist, was man kann begehren. | |||
Jesu, du Quell der Gütigkeit, | |||
der einig Weg zur Seligkeit, | |||
du süsser Fluss und Gnadenbrunn, | |||
des Vaters eingeborner Sohn. | |||
Jesu, du engelische Zier, | |||
all Himmelsheer lobsingen dir.}} | |||

{{Translation|English| | |||
O sweet Jesus, whoever thinks about You, | |||
Will find his heart overwhelmed with joy. | |||
There is no sweetness to be found | |||
Like that which You Yourself, Jesus, harbour, | |||
Jesus, the joy and delight of the heart, | |||
The light of the world and the sun of grace, | |||
You resemble nothing on this earth; | |||
In You is whatever one could desire. | |||
Jesus, source of goodness, | |||
The only way to blessedness, | |||
You, sweet stream and fount of grace, | |||
The only-begotten Son of the Father; | |||
Jesus, glory of the angels, | |||
All of heaven’s host sing praises to You.}} | |||
