REJOICE

            How pure Thy tenderness for me, Lord!

       Thy Word of grace and truth revives my weary heart;

Thou art my only Saviour and Lord.

 

CHORUS

 

My heart doth now rejoice,

I’ll sing with all my voice,

The greatness of thy love for me.

My all is Thine, o Lord,

Thou art my staff and rod,

My fount of joy and peace and my all.

 

2.                          Estranged from Father’s love and Hiscare,

       Thy gentle touch of love, released me from the snare,

            And brought me home with joy and greatcare.

 

3.                      Thy hand upholding me, my battles all were fought,

Thy name triumphant is my delight.

 

4.               My all on altar lay, myself henceforth to be

       A yieldedvessel - Thy will to do.

 

5.               I’ve seenbeyond the blue, the glorious City there,

       I’ve heard songs of saints full of joy;

They beckon me to come, the glorious life to share,

       Lord, come again to take thy Bride home.
