Jesu' Joy Of Man's Desiring (1997) Lyrics - St. James Rebecca

Jesu' joy of man's desiring 

Thou whose love shines down like a guiding light 

Drawn to Thee with souls aspiring 

Through our faith we reach a celestial height. 

Son of God, we pray we may reach Thee 

May we live in peace we beseech Thee 

Open doors of truth unknown 

As Thy love comes down from the heavenly throne 

Teach us from thy heavenly throne. 

Open doors of truth unknown 

As Thy love comes down from the heavenly throne. 

"Jesu' Joy of Man's Desiring," By J.S. Bach. English text by Bernard Gasso. Arranged by 

Byron Hagan, Tedd T. and Rebecca St. James
