Hymn Lyrics Search - Name That Hymn

An 80 year old friend, Joan, remembers American soldiers singing this hymn, here in England at an American base during the 2nd World War. One of the officers put her on his knee so she could see the Mass better. Joan still plays the piano, so does anyone know where I can find sheet music for this hymn?

With kind regards,

Dennis

I rise from dreams of time
And an angel guides my feet
To the sacred altar throne
Where Jesus' heart doth beat
Ever pleading day and night
Thou cannot from us part
O veiled and wondrous sight
O love of the Sacred Heart

The lone lamp softly burns
And a gentle silence reigns
Only with a low still voice
The Holy One complains
Ever pleading day and night
Thou cannot from us part
O veiled and wondrous sight
O love of the Sacred Heart

Long, long I've waited here
And though thou heeds not Me
The heart of God's own Son
Beats ever on for thee
Ever pleading day and night
Thou cannot from us part
O veiled and wondrous sight
O love of the Sacred Heart

In the womb of Mary mild
In the cradle of the tree
Heart of pure undying love
You lived and died for me
Ever pleading day and night
Thou cannot from us part
O veiled and wondrous sight
O love of the Sacred Heart

Dear Dennis,
Strangely enough I too am looking for the music for this hymn as my aunt died yesterday and my uncle wants me to sing it at the funeral on Saturday 31st March but no-one seems to have the music!
If you should find it before then I'd really appreciate a copy please?
Yours sincerely,

Dear Dennis and Anne Marie

I cannot read or wite music, but I do know the tune. We used to sing it during Mass in the early/mid 1950s in Scotland. The words were written in the back of my father's hymn book, which is now long lost.

Hi Anne Marie

Someone in Australia has asked us for the words to this Hymn.

Our artist Marilla Ness has recorded it on the CD From where I Stand.

You can find more details on her website at www.marilla.com
