There is joy in my soul,
For the Sav­ior is mine,
I am wear­ing the pledge
Of His Spir­it di­vine;
Every pro­mise by faith
Through His grace I may claim,
Oh, His love pass­eth know­ledge,
All praise to His name.

Refrain

There is joy in my soul,
There is joy in my song,
I am near­ing the gates
Of the bright, shin­ing throng;
And I list to the mu­sic
Of Ed­en so fair,
Hallelujah to Je­sus,
I soon shall be there.

There is joy in my soul
That will ne­ver de­part,
My Re­deem­er has made
His abode in my heart;
From the tempt­er and sin
I am kept ev­ery hour,
Oh, His love pass­eth know­ledge,
So great is its pow­er.

Refrain

There is joy in my soul
Though the clouds may arise,
Yet the bow of His mer­cy
Ne’er fades from the skies;
I am stand­ing by faith
Where the pure wa­ters glide,
Oh, His love pass­eth know­ledge,
So deep and so wide.

Refrain

There is joy in my soul,
There is rap­ture and rest,
In my Sav­ior and Lord
I am per­fect­ly blest;
’Twill be on­ly a step
Ere my feet press the shore,
Then His love pass­eth know­ledge,
I’ll shout ev­er­more.

Refrain
