Jesu, joy of man's desiring,
Holy wisdom, love most bright;
Drawn by Thee, our souls aspiring
Soar to uncreated light.
Word of God, our flesh that fashioned,
With the fire of life impassioned,
Striving still to truth unknown,
Soaring, dying round Thy throne.
Through the way where hope is guiding,
Hark, what peaceful music rings;
Where the flock, in Thee confiding,
Drink of joy from deathless springs.
Theirs is beauty's fairest pleasure;
Theirs is wisdom's holiest treasure.
Thou dost ever lead Thine own
In the love of joys unknown.
耶穌基督总是欢迎人们认识他,并且乐于向人们揭示他自己。关於耶穌基督的所有使实际记载,都已经完整的被收录在圣经之中。关于耶穌基督的知识,从来都不只是一种学问,正如他自己所说的:认识你是独一的真神,并且认识你所差来的耶穌基督,这就是永生。
