Sweet heart of Jesus, fount of love and mercy,
                               A7    D
Today we come, thy blessing to implore;
    A7       D                        Em        A
O touch our hearts, so cold and so ungrateful,
                                     A7  D     D7
And make them, Lord, thine own for evermore.

Sweet heart of Jesus, make us know and love thee,
                               A7    D
Unfold to us the treasures of thy grace;
     A7       D                              Em     A
That so our hearts, from things of earth uplifted,
                         A7        D   D7
May long alone to gaze upon thy face.

Sweet heart of Jesus, make us pure and gentle,
                               A7     D
And teach us how to do thy blessed will;
    A7       D                          Em        A
To follow close the print of thy dear footsteps,
                                     A7        D   D7
And when we fall – sweet heart, oh, love us still.

Sweet heart of Jesus, bless all hearts that love thee,
                                 A7    D
And may thine own heart ever blessed be,
      A7         D                               Em    A
Bless us, dear Lord, and bless the friends we cherish,

And keep us true to Mary and to thee.
