	1. Jesus, loving to the end
	Her whose heart Thy sorrows rend,
	And Thy dearest human friend:
	Hear us, holy Jesus.
	
	2. May we in Thy sorrows share,
	For Thy sake all peril dare,
	And enjoy Thy tender care:
	Hear us, holy Jesus.
	
	3. May we all Thy loved ones be,
	All one holy family,
	Loving for the love of Thee:
	Hear us, holy Jesus.
