585: A Song of Joy


Salvation’s free, glad joy to all
Of Adam’s fallen race;
We’ll tell to all both far and near
Of saving, keeping grace.

Refrain:
There’s joy, glad joy,
Now flowing from above;
There’s joy, glad joy
In the fullness of His love.

From wells of everlasting joy
Our strength by faith we bring;
The joy that thrills my ransomed soul
Can make the dumb heart sing.

How sweet the soul that’s purged as pure
As gold without alloy;
How peaceful is the flowing stream
Of deep, eternal joy.

I’ll live for Christ through this dark world,
And faithful I will be;
The joy I know that keeps my soul
Shall last eternally.
