Latinised Hymns

Who can cheer the heart like Jesus,

Who can cheer the heart like Jesus,
By his presence all divine?
True and tender, pure and precious,
O how blest to call him mine!
ALL THAT THRILLS MY SOUL IS JESUS:
HE IS MORE THAN LIFE TO ME (TO ME):
AND THE FAIREST OF TEN THOUSAND,
IN MY BLESSED LORD I SEE.

Love of Christ so freely given,
Grace of God beyond degree,
Mercy higher than the heaven,
Deeper than the deepest sea.

What a wonderful redemption!
Never can a mortal know
How my sin, tho' red like crimson,
Can be whiter than the snow.

Ev'ry need his hand supplying,
Ev 'ry good in him I see;
On his strength divine relying,
He is all in all to me.

By the crystal flowing river
With the ransomed I will sing,
And for ever and for ever
Praise and glorify the King.

T.Harris

Quis confortat nos ut Christus
Deus is, et proximus.
Fautor, fidus, carus, castus
is vocatur, et meus.
ILLE MAXIME STUPENDUS
ET QUAM VITA PLUS (MIHI)
OMNIBUSQUE PRAEFERENDUS,
QUOTQUOT ADSINT ALII.

Christi caritas donata,
vasta Dei gratia,
fine lenitas privata,
infra spectes seu supra.

O mirandum Redemptorem!
Culpae quis homo meae
hunc candere scit ruborem
posse purius nive?

Quicquid cupiam proviso
omne bonum est Dei;
eius robore confiso
is est omnia mihi.

Cum redemptis ut cantabo
iuxta flumen limpidum,
sempiternis celebrabo
Regem laudibus meum.
