JESUS IS THE JOY OF LIVING

          Jesus Christ, the soul’s delight;

          Every blessing of His favour,

      Fills my heart with hope so bright.

 

CHORUS

 

             Jesus is the Joy of living,

             He’s the King of life to me;

             Unto Him my all I’m giving,

       His for ever more to be.

             I will do what He commands me,

             Anywhere He leads I’ll go,

             Jesus is the Joy of living,

             He’s the dearest Friend I know.

 

2.               Now a halo crowns each duty,

And I will sing glad refrain.

 

3.             In His own sweet way He guides me,

      When the path I cannot see.

 

4.            Oh, whatsplendour, Oh, what glory,

      Oh, what matchless pow’r divine,

Is the Christ of Gospel story,

       Christ the Saviour Who is mine.
