Rejoicing in Him

Representative Text

1 When the Saviour I found,
To the joy of my soul,
I went on my way rejoicing;
When he pardoned my sin,
And made my heart whole,
I went on my way rejoicing.

Refrain:
Rejoicing, rejoicing,
I went on my way rejoicing;
Since Christ is my King,
His praises I’ll sing,
And go on my way rejoicing.

2 When he entered my heart,
And he made me his own,
I went on my way rejoicing;
When I trusted in him,
Who sits on the throne,
I went on my way rejoicing. [Refrain]

3 Some sweet day, up in heav’n,
With the Lord by my side,
I’ll go on my way rejoicing;
When in his presence dear
I ever abide,
I’ll go on my way rejoicing. [Refrain]
