Lyrics

Would we be joy­ful in the Lord?
Then count the rich­es o’er,
Revealed to faith with­in His Word,
And note the bound­less store.

Refrain

There is par­don, peace and pow­er,
And pu­ri­ty, and pa­ra­dise;
With all of these in Christ for me,
Let joy­ful songs of praise to Him arise!

From ev­ery sin by grace di­vine,
A par­don free be­stowed;
And with the par­don, peace is mine,
The peace in Je­sus’ blood.

Refrain

Of grace to break the pow­er of sin,
He gives a full sup­ply;
The Ho­ly Ghost, the heart with­in,
From sin doth pu­ri­fy.

Refrain

The pow­er to win a soul to God,
The Spir­it, too, im­parts;
And He, the gift of Christ our Lord,
Dwells now in all our hearts.

Refrain

These bless­ings we by faith re­ceive,
By sim­ple child­like trust;
In Christ, ’tis God’s de­light to give;
He pro­mised, and He must.
