O Jesu So Sweet, O Jesu So Mild
Words: Valentin Thilo
Music: O Jesulein süss | First appeared in Ausserlesene Catholische Geistliche Kirchengesäng
1. O Jesu so sweet, O Jesu so mild!
For sinners You became a child.
You came from heaven to earth fulfill
Your Father’s just and holy will.
O Jesu so sweet, O Jesu so mild!

2. O Jesu so sweet, O Jesu so mild!
With God we now are reconciled.
You have for all the ransom paid,
Your Father’s righteous anger stayed.
O Jesu so sweet, O Jesu so mild!

3. O Jesu so sweet, O Jesu so mild!
Joy fills the world which sin defiled.
Whate’er we have belongs to You;
O keep us faithful, strong, and true.
O Jesu so sweet, O Jesu so mild!
