Working for Jesus from day unto day,
Praying and feasting on food pure and holy,
I'm on my heavenly way.
Refrain:
Joy, yes, 'tis joy in His service,
Joy that descends from above;
Working and watching and waiting and praying,
Kept by the Savior's love.
2 By faith each day I can view the great mansions,
Decked with the gems of a heavenly grace,
Angels sing sweetly the songs of redemption,
Jesus is in that place. [Refrain]
3 Day after day I will sing of His mercy,
For every hour His grace is anew,
I praise His name for I'm still on my journey,
Heaven is still in view. [Refrain] Topics: The Christian Life Death and Life Eternal; Joy Scripture: John 1:4 Languages: English Tune Title: GREAT JOY
