Hymn After Receiving Holy Communion

I HAVE Thee now, O Jesu, Enshrined within my soul, In all Thy love and fulness, With power to make me whole. Though cold and so unworthy, 5 Though weak and stained with sin, I opened to Thee, Jesu, And Thou hast entered in. I have Thee now, O Jesu! And oh, the thrill divine 10 To feel that Thou art in me, To know that Thou art mine! I have Thee, too, O Jesu, As pledge of future bliss; But faith is lost in wonder 15 At rapture more than this. I have Thee now, O Jesu! Purge all my dross away, Light up my inmost being With Thy full flood of day; 20 Do Thou, O Lord, shine through me In all my words and ways, Till others catch Thy glory, And join in endless praise. I have Thee now, O Jesu! 25 Oh, never more depart! Grant that no fresh offences Shall drive Thee from my heart; Till down the long dark valley, The path which Thou hast trod, 30 There dawns in cloudless splendour The vision of my God. Amen.
