Jesus, the spring of joys divine,

Whence all our hopes and comforts flow:

Jesus, no other name but thine

Can save us from eternal woe.

2 In vain would boasting reason find

Thy way to happiness and God;

Her weak directions leave the mind

Bewildered in a dubious road.

3 No other name will heaven approve;

Thou art the true, the living way,

Ordained by everlasting love,

To the bright realms of endless day.

4 Here let our constant feet abide,

Nor from the heavenly path depart;

O let thy Spirit, gracious Guide!

Direct our steps, and cheer our heart.

5 Safe lead us through this world of night,

And bring us to the blissful plains—

The regions of unclouded light

Where perfect joy for ever reigns.
