Jesu, dulcis memoria

SATB chorus w/ divisi, a cappella  |  2'45"


Text attributed to Saint Bernard of Clairvaux

Jesu, dulcis memoria,
dans vera cordis gaudia:
sed super mel et omnia
ejus dulcis praesentia.

Jesus, the very thought of Thee
With sweetness fills the breast!
Yet sweeter far Thy face to see
And in Thy Presence rest.
translated by Edward Caswell
