JESUS GOD in hiding, whom I DO ADORE,
by these bare shadows shape and nothing more,
see Lord at thy service, Lo lies here of heart lost in lost in wonder at the God thou are.
Seeing, touching, tasting,easily deceived
the faith that comes by hearing that shall be believed
what God s Son has told me I take for truth I do,for thruth himself speaks truly, o er is nothing true
ADORO TE DEVOTE, ADORO TE DEVOTE!
Corrected lyrics: Jesus God in hiding Whom I do adore, Mask by these bare shadows, Shape and nothing more. See Lord at Thy service, Lo lies here of heart, Lost all lost in wonder, At the God Thou art. Seeing, touching, tasting, easily deceived, But faith that comes by hearing, That shall be believed. What God Son has told me, I take for Truth I do, For Truth himself speaks truly, Or there's nothing more. Adoro Te Devote (x2) Oh Thou a reminder of Christ crucified, Living bare the life of us for whom He died. Lend this life to me, then, satisfy my mind, There'll be all the sweetness men was meant to find. Adoro Te Devote (x4) I am not like Thomas, wound i cannot see, But can plainly call you Lord and God as he. Lead me to a deeper faith, Daily nearer move, daily make me hope more, daily make me love. Saviour whom I look up, shrouded here before, God I beg You, Send me what I thrist for so. Only just to see You, face to face in life, And be blessed forever with thy glory sight. Adoro Te Devote (x7) Thank you for all of your support. God bless you all
Devoutly I adore thee, hidden Godhead, who truly stayest hidden under these forms: to thee doth my whole heart subject itself, because, in contemplating thee, everything [else] is found lacking. Sight, touch, taste fail with regard to thee, but only by hearing does one believe surely; I believe whatever God’s Son said: nothing is truer than the word of Truth. On the Cross the Godhead alone was hidden, but here, hidden too is the humanity. However, believing and confessing both, I ask what the penitent thief asked. I do not immediately gaze on wounds, as Thomas did; yet nonetheless I confess thee my God. Make me believe in thee more and more, [make me] put my hope in thee, love thee. O memorial of the Lord’s death! Living bread, granting life to man! Grant to me always to live from thee and that thou mayest always taste sweet to me. Kindly pelican, Lord Jesus, cleanse me, the unclean one, in thy blood, of which [just] one drop can save the entire world of all crime. Jesus, whom now I behold under a veil, I pray that that for which I so thirst may come to pass: that, looking intently upon thy unveiled face, I may be blessed with the sight of thy glory.
